This is a bit overdue, but thanks again to everyone who came out to our Spring Big Show two weeks ago! We had a lot of fun, and thanks again to Richard Gere for not showing up.

On a bit of a broader note, thanks... https://t.co/1pn1sGuNMW

crazy to see how often major publications misremember history / downfall of #Blockbuster; they wisely pivoted, had a DVD rental service and streaming was on the way before governance issues shuttered those services and killed the company @ginamkeating #ReadNetflixed #BCNMI

[Inc. @Inc]

Want to know why a giant like Ikea is testing such a huge pivot? Look no further than Blockbuster. @seanwise https://t.co/OyItlMbEcz

Charlie Ebersol's quote about the AAF being more of a tech company than a football league ended up coming true in the end

[Albert Breer @AlbertBreer]

Perception inside the AAF is that Hurricanes owner Tom Dundon bought a majority stake in the league simply for the gambling app being developed.

Source: "Dundon got the technology he wanted and he's now minus one rather large headache."

...and two months later, we have our answer https://t.co/KQrbmz5VOG #BCNMI

[ProFootballTalk @ProFootballTalk]

All @TheAAF football operations will be suspended in the next few hours, per source with knowledge of situation. League is not folding, yet. But it's heading that way.

[Ari Malliaros @AriMalliaros]

Will be interesting to see how the #AAF, a league that started with zero brand recognition, fares after leaning heavily into #OTT and wearables that add real-time stakes to gaming and fantasy #BCNMI https://t.co/6gr8nk1JTj

@GCTigerTracker TT likes Twin Peaks? Love it

[Ari Malliaros @AriMalliaros]

The notion of a subscription plan (with a cap on miles per month) to a Rideshare service would be a fascinating value prop. Interesting to see if Lyft's singular focus on competing solely against car ownership pays off https://t.co/LUwOeO3btD #Lyft #LyftIpo #ipo #markets

@New_to_LA viral promotion!!! viral promotion!!!

[Ari Malliaros @AriMalliaros]

@ArtmanJosh @lauragotarra1 @dan_delvec all right on track last night! #BCNMI

[Ari Malliaros @AriMalliaros]

#BCNMI interesting article about Craigslist that may tell you something about where USA is headed re:how liable are platforms for third-party content? IMO love to see the internet move away from its libertarian fever dream origins, but I'm just the TA! https://t.co/S1jgHq0EtX

when your theatre professor mentions @Merrimack_Rep as an example of Great Set design in the Greater Boston area 👍

@pjmcnealy reminds me of how digital ad revenue did not offset all of the losses in print ad revenue over time #BCNMI

[Ari Malliaros @AriMalliaros]

@pjmcnealy Fitting a tablet-sized screen w/ability to run three apps at a time into someone's pocket definitely clears the bar for innovative, IMO. Whether or not this is something people actually want to buy (especially at ~$2k) will be interesting to see #BCNMI

I say this as an iPhone owner, but it seems like Samsung is innovating while Apple is iterating #SamsungEvent #BCNMI #5G

[Ari Malliaros @AriMalliaros]

#Apple shows some signs of new innovation: piloting a credit card with #GoldmanSachs as it tries to boost its service revenues to $50B by 2020; will be interesting to see if integration w/Apple Pay is sufficient value prop w/only 2% cash back #BCNMI https://t.co/wjN3nTWlTq

[Ari Malliaros @AriMalliaros]

Big cost for early adopters who want in on the #GalaxyFold, but surely we will see the price waterfall over time. Will be interesting to see if any of this affects Apple's product mix #BCNMI https://t.co/ILctdeR4Hg

Following up: Fascinating graphic on change in ad spend by media industry over the past couple of years (H/T @WSJ) #BCNMI

[Ari Malliaros @AriMalliaros]

Interesting to see @BillSimmons continue to bet big on podcasts as many scale down investment in the space. @ringer monthly podcast downloads outpacing web traffic by x50! I will stay on board as long as I get my @KevinOConnorNBA fix! #BCNMI https://t.co/n9x86u4B7j

[Ari Malliaros @AriMalliaros]

Excited to return to #BCNMI as a TA this semester! Let's rock!

[Ari Malliaros @AriMalliaros]

Afraid of AI's rapid advancement? 7 years ago @apple introduced #Siri; now @google co-founder Sergey Brin warns us to keep ethics in mind as the pace of innovation speeds up; I used to think Moore's Law was an exaggeration, I was very wrong #BCNMI https://t.co/1RR44PPFjs
