Yesterday I wrote a primer on how to use Snapchat for my peer group of “over 30” people who don’t yet “get” Snapchat. Today I want to talk briefly about why I believe Snapchat is an important media company.
UPDATE: I started this project, it’s called Forwardlytics and you can find it here https://github.com/jipiboily/forwardlytics.
I like Segment. I like it a lot. I’ve been using it for a few years now.
The growth of social media networks triggered development of different genres and forms these networks could take. One of such forms is anonymous. In 2014, anonymous social media apps like Secret, Whisper, YikYak, Facebook Rooms emerged and gained…
I was down in Palo Alto to get coffee with a friend. We were walking around after coffee when I saw Tin Pot Creamery. I knew I remembered them for something, I just couldn’t put my mind on what it was. A few seconds later something clicked. It was one…
Last week, I received a personal invitation to a private HoloLens demo at the Microsoft flagship store in Midtown Manhattan. For those of you that might not be familiar with this device or its origins, I’ll provide a bit of context.

Зачем?
S4 у меня уже около 2 лет, так что самая очевидная причина — хотелось разнообразия, благо кастомных прошивок сейчас пруд пруди на любой вкус и цвет. Плюс у родной самсунговской прошивки есть масса…

Of late I have been dismayed by the increasing number of securitybreaches at web companies.
Very troubling is “exposure” of personal data, even worse whenkids are involved.
I’ve had the privilege to be deputed to attend SXSW Interactive this year. It promises to be an event full of some really great talks, and a huge amount of learning.
As a cyber security consultant the biggest issues I run into that most people aren’t aware of — the almost complete lack of understanding of Risk MANAGEMENT (management emphasized) and the impact that personal motivation has in the likelihood that an effective solution will be created by merging technology, liability, workflow/processes, and most…
I can tell you a story. But I’d rather show you.
I’ve learned Java and Android this past year. I can code. Good. But can I build? That’s what makes the difference on that second step. Which foot you lift up first.

Nate, love the article…. Maybe a separate post but would love to learn more about the difference between product experience managers and user experience designers.
They’re obviously partners (with the rest of the PXT) but i’m curious if there are specific points in your mind where they switch from drivers seat to passenger seat and vice versa.

If you do the math, becoming an entrepreneur is insane. The odds of success are tiny; failure is almost guaranteed. To make the leap, you have to be fearless.

While I was writing blog posts in the past, I only focused on all about driver-less car. But I have read very interesting articles about the side-effects when the driver-less car will be on the road. Now I am going to write about money issues. The self-driving cars based on Artificial intelligence…

I have never understood how knitting can be a an antidote to stress. The continuous picking and unpicking of eyelets, the ball of wool perpetually entangling itself, the knitting needles, sharp and dangerous. Ah, forgot the patterns, as complicated as Egyptian hieroglyphs.
With the proliferation of technology, at some point of our academic life, going to school is an unwise investment.
We often experience a job-mismatch after earning a degree; however, I think royal mentors in the academe, as well as aspiring businessmen, should get the chance to read this.
Interesting! I wonder if each time I stream a song I would hear a different version of it, would it make me wanna listen to it more? Perhaps discover and appreciate the depth of the song. I think I would, esp when it’s a song that appeals to me. I wonder how many ppl would like that, and who? the loyal fans? the casual listener?
Great list Chris. You might want to include a tile for distribution channels like Steam, Oculus Share, WEARVR, Google Play, etc. These play a critical role in how VR content is surfaced and monetized, and are especially important for the more experimental independent VR work that’s really serving as the crucible of innovation at a time when the book on VR is being written by the day.
I have a similar idea, I wanna try with a raspberrypi/one-way mirror on a screen
Hi there..☺ I think we are heading towards singularity. Not in the next ten but maybe in the next twenty years! There are still some chapters that have to be written. Sadly and happily. Sadly because my generation (-35y) has a lot to upend and change. And happily because there will also be (I predict) more gems in the world, of deeper connections as…
Moral of the story, I should tweet right now that Snapchat turned me down and maybe two years later…. Irony will strike.
It’s a paycheck. MBA business education combined with pyramid management structures ensuring people at the top have no clue what’s really going down in Steerage, and middle managers building little fiefdoms and trying to lie and deceive their way up the ladder in an elaborate game of King of the Hill.
I totally feel your pain Ryan. I have bought so many domains over the past year that I definitely consider domain shopping to be an addiction. Fortunately I will be able to let Some go and keep my renewal bill to about $100. I’m not even willing to reveal some of the ones I have, haha.
Oh, Google!
Back at it again with social networking. They bought Orkut, but it was integrated in a very clunky fashion by way of a hyperlink to a totally non-Google UX layout.
Then there was Google Buzz. A weird amalgamation of AOL IM and a forum like interface. Buzzkill! Ha!
Great stuff Gary. Love the new book #askgaryvee hope the Barnes and noble effort worked out

Unfortunately the AI robots will probably take over, brain wash us with vr headsets and build dynamic 3D printed prisons to keep us controlled lel.
“Your writing is not valued until someone read it…”
“….until someone read it profoundly.”
A good point.
Thinking further, a book is a collaborative result of reader and the writer…the reader may arrive early or late!
Might not be the kind of guy who does that. It doesn’t come naturally to all.
Love this, Jason!
Damn it. That’s another long post. Will read later.

Video Gaming, fun as hell if you ask me. Gaming was a hobby if not a must do everyday back in 2013. I used to game as a way to escape reality because at the moment of time, life fell off into a world of darkness. Everyday i would game and game my ass off for hour, then after a good day of gaming ambushed randomly with sadness without knowledge of…
Another documentary worth watching.
