Should Facebook have purchased Whatsapp?

Welcome to the first Interhacktives podcast, where Zachary Boren and Daniele Palumbo argue over whether Facebook made a good move by purchasing Whatsapp, the free messaging service now used by 450m people worldwide.

This was recorded on Friday afternoon, and therefore doesn’t take into account the Whatsapp service problems that occurred over the weekend.

  1. Might not be a bad idea to edit off the 90 seconds of silence at the beginning… 🙂

    Also, it’s not technically a Podcast until it’s available as an RSS feed. You can apply to have that done on Soundcloud, or offer it as a feed through WordPress’s own podcasting capabilities.
