In the latest installment of our wrap up of some of the top stories on Memeburn, Ventureburn and Gearburn this week, we explain how an amateur video of an impala jumping through a tourist’s car window to escape some cheetahs has fascinated YouTube. The video has racked up almost 6-million views in a week, proving yet again that quirky animals are often the secret to viral success.
The recently announced Lumia 1020 — Nokia’s impressive camera that also makes phone calls — also features in this episode, as we discuss some of its features and the latest apps to come to Windows Phone. Wondering where those superheroes are? They’re mentioned in Ventureburn’s snapshot of the African tech space, which highlights some of the interesting entrepreneurs and startups on the continent, including Leti Games, which aims to make characters from African folklore mainstream superheroes.
