[読了時間：１分] NHN Japan株式会社（本社東京、森川亮社長）は、同社が運営する無料通話・無料メールスマートフォンアプリ『LINE（ライン）』において、4月26日に人気キャラクターのスタンプを購入できる「スタンプショップ」を世界同時公開したことに伴い、台湾・タイのApp Store 「トップセールス App」でランキング1位、本国内3位を達成したと発表した。執行役員の舛田淳氏は、「一般的にApp Storeの「トップセールス App」ランキング上位に入るアプリはゲーム関連のアプリが中心。LINEのようなコミュニケーションアプリが上位にランクインすることは極めて異例」と語っており、LINEの課金事業に手ごたえを感じたとしている。 「スタンプショップ」は、LINEのアプリケーション（iPhone/Android）内で、LINEオリジナルのキャラクターに加え、「おさわり探偵 なめこ栽培キ

This $20 Trillion Rock Could Turn a Startup Into Earth's Richest Company Meet Amun 3554. Doesn't look like much, right?

[brightcove video="1593068485001" /] You may soon be able to shoot 3D video with your cellphone -- even if that phone doesn't have a 3D camera. Fujitsu is working on a new way for phones that just have one rear camera to shoot three-dimensional videos -- a process that traditionally requires two cameras. The magic would be done using a special attachment that uses mirrors to send two different ima

A report in the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) says a pilot program that asked parents in low-income communities to get their children vaccinated was successful in increasing the percentage of people who received shots.

Why Apple's CEO Is Right About 'Refrigerator-Toasters' -- and Laptop-Tablets Apple CEO Tim Cook is such a person. His ad-libbed comment during this week's company earnings call about "convergence" devices has inspired more online buzz than a Kardashian marriage. Answering a question about whether an Apple tablet-laptop hybrid is inevitable, Cook said convergence shouldn't be done for convergence's

Unlike most people, I don’t own Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) stock, though I’ve wanted to since I sold my shares for $100 years ago.  As shares recently started to come off their record highs, I thought I might finally get somewhat of a buying opportunity.  I read in several places that their next stop was all the way down to $500 a share while many analysts were predicting an earnings miss and more pressu

Several Mashable sons and daughters joined us for coloring, puppy playing, snacks, and plenty of pictures. And it wouldn't be a day at Mashable without scooters or Nerf guns (or some combination of both). Our New York City headquarters is a very dog-friendly office, but

Zynga CEO Mark Pincus: $180M OMGPOP Acquisition Was A “Rare Instance” Stepping back from remarks a few weeks ago that suggested that Zynga was about to go on a shopping spree, Zynga chief executive Mark Pincus said the $180 million acquisition of Draw Something-maker OMGPOP was a “rare instance.” Although OMGPOP was certainly a step up from anything Zynga has ever done before, Pincus said it didn’
