Here’s what caught my eye today:
Tech News
1. Wunderlist, one of the original to-do list apps, has launched a premium version of its app in its first attempt at monetization. Wunderlist Pro brings the feature of assigning to-dos to colleagues, with more new features such as file attachments coming in future releases. [TechCrunch]
2. Path is adding 1 million users a week; the latest launch of the app includes the ability to message your friends and send “stickers”. What’s interesting is that Path is seeing growth in Central and South America in Spanish-speaking populations before reaching Spanish-speaking users in the U.S. [WSJ Digits]
3. Nutrino, a new iOS virtual nutritionist app, aims to help you manage your eating and grocery shopping plans. After entering your vitals and what you would like to eat, Nutrino creates a custom diet plan on a day-by-day basis. Currently, the app is only integrated with Tesco in the UK, so UK users can buy their grocery lists with a few clicks. The rest of us will still have to stand in line at Trader Joe’s. [Engadget]

3. For the e-commerce shops out there, how to you measure and showcase social proof on your site? Here are some great examples, from sites such as Amazon, Naked Wines, and Modcloth. [Econsultancy]
