If you like it then you gotta put a screen on it!

October 8, 2014

In a world where the constant battle to strive to make things smaller and smaller seems to be never ending, the boys (and girls!?) over at Tiny Circuits have created a miniature screen that you can put on…well…basically anything. At an inch across (diagonally), the TinyScreen is a ‘full-colour display the size of your thumb’!

The tiny screen comes with four control buttons, its own circuitry and multiple, simple click add-ons, but the most impressive – and for me, exciting – thing is the open source app platform that seamlessly integrates with android and iOS devices. The screen allows for push notifications, which means that you can integrate into your phone or other device apps, including social platforms and create your own wearable tech, speedo or any other usable device. In terms of social media and marketing, the TinyScreen could be used to send push notifications or tweets to marketing collateral given away at an event, bringing perfect synchrony to the online/offline barrier and making social physical. This is just one of many ways that the TinyScreen could be used in a digital marketing environment, limited only really by your imagination (and budget) as marketers.

TinyScreen are currently on Kickstarter and picking up loads of press from the likes of Techcrunch, very excited to see what the future brings from this new and innovative start up!

B2B marketing feels slower because you’re selling to a buying group, not a decision maker. Forrester says the average buying decision involves 13 people and 89% of purchases involve two or more departments. Add three generations with different trust cues and you get rework, internal debate, and “one more version” forever. Buyers are also doing more research without sales, which makes guessing expensive. This LinkedIn Live with Tejal Patel is about buyer behaviour, trust cues, and what social is doing in research and validation, so you can build one narrative that travels across the group and saves your team time.

We’re only a couple of weeks into 2026, and social already feels…different, in the best way possible. This year isn’t just about flashy new features or the next viral sound; it’s about making the internet feel more human, more useful, and a lot less exhausting.
