Tune (company)

Tune (stylized as TUNE) is a mobile platform company based in Seattle, Washington. It was previously named HasOffers, changing its name in 2014. The company produces two lines of SaaS: Tune Marketing Console and HasOffers.

Company History

The company was initially founded as HasOffers in 2009 by twin brothers Lucas and Lee Brown. The twins bootstrapped the company, using their own finances to found the firm. The company’s CEO is Peter Hamilton, who was promoted to the position in 2012. By 2011 the company was measuring $300 million in partner payouts. In 2013 it received $9.4 million in funding from Accel. Then, in 2014 it changed its name to Tune, the name coming from the idea of helping customers better “tune” their marketing campaigns. By the end of 2014 the company had $40 million in revenues. That year they also acquired two more private companies, without releasing their names. In 2015 the company received $27 million in series B funding, from Icon Ventures. The company is headquartered in Seattle, and has offices in San Francisco, New York City, London, Dallas, Tel Aviv, Seoul, and Berlin. In February 2014, HasOffers and Mobile App Tracking were removed as a Facebook Mobile Measurement Partner for violating Facebook's device-level sharing policy. In 2015, Tune acquired Artisan Mobile, a Philadelphia-based start-up that app developers use to track their projects.

Pop!

Pop! was a British group consisting of Glenn Ball, Hannah Lewis, Jamie Tinkler, and Jade McGuire. The group was formed in the summer of 2003 when they were signed by Pete Waterman. They released three singles on the Sony BMG record label, but disbanded in early 2005, due to poor record sales.

The group had three hit singles, which all reached the top 40 in the UK Singles Chart during 2004 and 2005, but each performed under expectations. Their debut single "Heaven and Earth" was withdrawn from the chart because the single contained a track whose length was longer than permitted for that format. Following singles were "Can't Say Goodbye" and "Serious". A fourth single, "Xanadu" (a cover of the Olivia Newton-John and Electric Light Orchestra song), was due to be released but was cancelled when the group split. They had also recorded songs for a planned studio album. Their single "Heaven and Earth" was licensed for use in Dancing Stage Fusion by Konami in 2005.

Pop (U2 album)

Pop is the ninth studio album by Irish rock band U2. It was produced by Flood, Howie B, and Steve Osborne, and was released on 3 March 1997 on Island Records. The album was a continuation of the band's 1990s musical reinvention, as they incorporated alternative rock, techno, dance, and electronica influences into their sound. Pop employed a variety of production techniques that were relatively new to U2, including sampling, loops, programmed drum machines, and sequencing.

Recording sessions began in 1995 with various record producers, including Nellee Hooper, Flood, Howie B, and Osborne, who were introducing the band to various electronica influences. At the time, drummer Larry Mullen, Jr. was inactive due to a back injury, prompting the other band members to take different approaches to songwriting. Upon Mullen's return, the band began re-working much of their material but ultimately struggled to complete songs. After the band allowed manager Paul McGuinness to book their upcoming 1997 PopMart Tour before the record was completed, they felt rushed into delivering it. Even after delaying the album's release date from the 1996 Christmas and holiday season to March 1997, U2 ran out of time in the studio, working up to the last minute to complete songs.

Glossary of professional wrestling terms

Professional wrestling has accrued a considerable nomenclature through its long existence. Much of it stems from the industry's origins in the days of carnivals and circuses, and the slang itself is often referred to as "carny talk." In the past, wrestlers used such terms in the presence of fans so as not to reveal the worked nature of the business. In recent years, widespread discussion on the Internet has popularized these terms. Many of the terms refer to the financial aspects of pro wrestling in addition to performance-related terms.
