Keynote Launches World's First 'Three Screen'

Keynote identified and benchmarked hot startups in the following categories; Collaboration, Digital Entertainment, Mobile & Social Gaming, Social Networking, Social Retail and Travel. Three key performance measurements were collected for all companies to determine the leaders in online performance, measured through Keynote Transaction PerspectiveTM and Keynote Mobile Web Perspective™.

Blue chip or a startup

"Whether you're a blue chip or a startup, not giving clients a blazing fast online experience is as good as redirecting them to your competitors," says Anshu Agarwal, vice president of marketing at Keynote. "Given what we're seeing in our index, many companies are walking, not running, to improve their online performance. It's quite eye-opening to see how slowly some sites are loading on tablets and smartphones."

Desktop measurements are taken from the ten largest U.S. metropolitan areas on high-speed links attached to key points on the largest U.S. Internet Service Provider backbones.

For the first week of each month measurements are aggregated across each location and screen to come up with the average speed and reliability of the hot startup on the desktop, smartphone and tablet.
