Thumb, The Social App For Instant Opinions, Adds A Shopping Category
Thumb, the opinion polling mobile app, has been growing swiftly. But long ago, before users were asking about their love lives or how sexy their abs look from this angle, the vision for Thumb was focused on products, and the influence friends and family have on purchasing decisions. 1.2 million+ users later, the dream of product-centered opinion is now a reality, with the launch of Thumb's new Holiday Shopping category. Clearly, Black Friday, Cyber Monday and the weeks leading up to Christmas are some of the busiest shopping times of the year, and Thumb wants to capitalize on that in terms of user engagement.
