Cats and kittens are very popular on the internet. Many have gone on to create their own memes and star in YouTube videos that have garnered millions and millions of views. Today we’re proud to announce an expansion and rebranding of our site in order to tap into this huge market that we’ve been ignoring. Everyone likes smartphones and mobile technology. Everyone likes cats. Over the past few months we’ve been doing extensive research involving cats and smartphones. Cats practically own the internet.

Last Thursday we kicked off one of our most beloved projects: the Pocketnow Live show. We consider it close to our hearts because it is a feature which is about You, our reader. It requires You to be here with us in a virtual place where you can interact with our editors, join us just to say “hi” or have a casual conversation about anything, really. We have ran into some technical difficulties because of which unfortunately this week’s episode will have to be cancelled. We’ve been working ...
