Startups Bet Audio Is the Next Frontier for Social Media - Mashable - Seth Fiegerman - "I saw a lot of people texting and posting photos on social media, but no one really communicating with their voice," Matthew Murphy, founder of Appsurdity, the Bay Area startup behind Dubbler, told Mashable. - "The whole idea is you don't text your personality, you voice it. We wanted to give people a platform to share their voice and be heard." - That simple premise of sharing a few seconds of audio has apparently caught on with users. Dubbler's app has been downloaded more than 200,000 times to date and more than 55,000 times in the first 24 hours after coming out of beta this weekend, briefly cracking Apple's top 20 free apps.
