Link: STARTUP HANGOUT – HOW SHEENA ALLEN BEAT THE ODDS BUILDING AN APP COMPANY W/ OVER 2M DOWNLOADS4/25/2015 Check out Sheena Allen's interview with The Phat Startup. Allen was interviewed by The Phat Startup's co-founder, Anthony Frasier.
"Sheena Allen has an app company with over 2 million downloads. She is a single founder, and she started with no knowledge of how to code. Sheena just had a problem, and wanted to solve it. Sounds familiar right? Most founders start off with a story like that, but the odds were always against her. Sheena comes from a small town in Mississippi. There was no tech scene, no meetups, no nothing. She basically used Google, and began her journey from there. In this brief interview we talk about: How she got started, what it was like being a founder with no experience, what it’s like to be a black female in the tech industry, and more."

PicSlit - Banner and Tile for Instagram An update for PicSlit for Android is now available. In the past, users had numerous issues with the in-app purchase to upgrade to the full version of PicSlit. For that reason, we now have two separate versions available for PicSlit - one free; one paid. We have completely eliminated the option for in-app purchase. In addition to now having two separate versions, the new and improved PicSlit now offers a tile option. Before the update, PicSlit only offered the option for a banner, which means that the user could only slit one picture. With the tile option, users can now slit 2 or more pictures. Ready to check out the new PicSlit for Android? Click HERE and start creating banners and tiles for your Instagram page. Also, check out some of the new screenshots from the upgrade below.
