    By now, the internet buzz, strange behavior on the streets, and watercooler talk have probably alerted you to the overnight sensation that is Pokémon Go.

It rose to the top of iTunes charts faster than you could evolve your Jigglypuff into a Wigglytuff — and if that sounds like utter nonsense to you, tune into this week's episode of Generation App.

    Who needs cable anyway? Why so many people are cutting the cord

    Over the past two decades, Craigslist has maintained its market share in the online classified space, despite neglecting to make any major updates to its interface or optimize for mobile.

On this week's episode of Generation App, we talk about the strange, enduring legacy of Craigslist, and whether its new competitors pose a real threat.
