Discovered Sudha Murthy books! A great find... do read them esp if you have kids at home

[Jeyanthi @Jeyanthidpm]

As always last week of the year = look back on what I did, where I could improve and also take feedback from friends and office folks. Tweet thread probably :)

[Jeyanthi @Jeyanthidpm]

[Shachin Bharadwaj @shachinb]

Snap introduced ephemeral messages to the world 👻

Every social company copied/adapted to this model.

But did anybody ask - Should every story expire in 24hrs?

We did @markk_app

This seemingly trivial product tweak is bringing in 1000s of users. 🧵 👇

[Jeyanthi @Jeyanthidpm]

Congratulations! Thats massive... tier 2,3 cities focused apps in India are innovating at amazing speed!

[Jani @Janilokal]

[Jeyanthi @Jeyanthidpm]

Some tips on building good UX

Focus on one Call to Action (CTA) per screen
Keep CTA colors for similar use case same across the app
Follow golden rule of 100ms response times
Tor text heavy apps, set a clear heirarchy of information flow

All these may sound obvious, but isn't

Book Markk Me
Markk-ing 🌍
I M IT (Like I Markk It)

[Markk – Share place stories @markk_app]

Folks what are the best puns you can come up with the word Markk?

Looking to print some cool swag for our early Markkers!

Tag the creative folks you know 🤘

Maybe the @DunzoIt team can help us leave our Markk ;)

[Jeyanthi @Jeyanthidpm]

Dont start with building an app. Start with a website/interface

[Jeyanthi @Jeyanthidpm]

Same for product managers

[Kunal Shah @kunalb11]

Founders often get stuck in hard decisions where they try to make every shareholder happy.

But their only role is do what’s right for the company and not try to make everyone happy as it’s never possible.

A guy in my society is investing 75K every month

[Abhash K @AabhashK]

The way the Indian Crypto platforms are going about this, the next major dip is going to bring out many shocking tales of folks losing their life savings. These ads need to tone it down massively.

Also, WTF is "quality check kiye hue crypto" 🙄🤦🏽‍♂️

[Jeyanthi @Jeyanthidpm]

@BeingPractical How much time do you spend with founders (also how do you manage this well with your time for Dhan)?
