The Panda Monthly Report — February 2016
Panda is an aggregator of all things popular in tech and today we’re happy to introduce our first issue highlighting the most popular designs, inspirations and products every month. The aim is to give you a healthy snapshot of what happened and what you may have missed. Why? So much is going on in the tech world today and it’s just hard to stay on top of everything. Hopefully this will make things a little bit easier. Welcome to the first issue of The Panda Monthly report.
The report has been prepared based on popularity and pandamark scores of an article / design. So this curation is totally based on the perspective of Panda users. Join Panda Weekly Newsletter to receive a weekly curation of most popular articles.
