@LadyAshBorg Congratulations, Ashwini and MSD team! 💕inspiring as always!

Honestly the VP debate so far is much better than the entirety of the last Presidential debate

Two people actually answering questions is refreshing and it’s sad that this isn’t the norm

[Swetha Surya @ImSwetha]

@ajaw_ Couldn’t agree more!! Trying hard every day to not take it for granted!

Some very interesting Gen-Z holiday buying behavior stats from GIST!

[Swetha Surya @ImSwetha]

GIST is all about sharing what you love and seeing what your friends are buying in real-time! Check us out here: https://t.co/rKuUCNxEfq

We got featured on @TheBlastNews. :)
How cool is that!!

https://t.co/FGZRQPXZGm @TheBlastNews Thanks @TheBlastNews!

With commerce and retail taking up so much of our lives, what we buy is really who we are! And each of our decisions is making an impact! #retail

Sequoia’s move toward a single open-ended fund that can hold companies through their post-public life is game changing. Companies will become longer-term oriented and venture will become more public market savvy, all critical as tech continues to scale.

Why does it feel like a huge power shut down across the world?!

While this might be true, there’s a lot of scope for feedback, guidance and mentorship on the job.

Reporting to a CEO for the first time?

Realize one thing: there’s like no onboarding or training

[GIST @The_GIST_app]

Boughts, not bots.

[Swetha Surya @ImSwetha]

This is true. It’s so painful to see it happening. Please get vaccinated when you get a chance and please stay safe.

Do I know anyone in my network who runs a D2C shop and would be open for a 15 min chat?

Hoping to get some feedback on a new product :’)

If you can make an intro, pls tag/DM! thanks 🙌

[Swetha Surya @ImSwetha]

Now that I'm job hunting in this crazy scenario, reminds me how fun unconventional ways are :)

[Swetha Surya @ImSwetha]

This definitely took me down my memory lane too. I landed my 2nd / one of my favorite jobs by pinging the CEO here on Twitter and one week down, I was walking out with a job!

[Lea Marolt @hellosunschein]

Took a trip down memory lane of how I landed my first job as an iOS engineer at @RTR_tech 🙃 way back when in 2015.

How did you get your first job?

It's been a crazy year so far but working with @The_GIST_app has been one of the best things about this
Summer! Thank you for the feature @sdsufowler !!

This should so become a norm!!

[Neerja Shah @Neerjargon]

I took my first ever paid #menstrualleave today, because @obvious_in accounts for it. Might not be a big deal for many, but it is for me! As someone who's worked through the worst of my periods, just having this option feels surreal. Hoping for this to become a norm everywhere!

2020. The yr e-com starts to become the norm (& not a digital transformation project by expensive consultants) for retailers across categories

🛒 US e-com sales up 50%
🥦 52% US bought groceries online, 20% for 1st time
📱Electronics up 58%
👗 Fashion, only ⏬(sans Pjs up 148%)

Zoom became a social network this week.

Our default social behavior for almost every use case is now “want to hop on a Zoom?”

Meanwhile, Facebook showed its old age & lack of meaningful social utility.

In a moment of crisis, all we really need is low latency video connections.
