Gimlet may have been acquired by Spotify, but Gimlet employees want to maintain the culture they created. Seems fitting with the large focus on culture last week #BCSTT https://t.co/iHgAqUfzeH

Super interesting article about AT&T's strategy. Seems AT&T will soon be going head to head with Netlfix, Google, and Amazon at least according to this article. I wouldn't put my money on AT&T in that fight, but time will tell. #BCSTT

Richard Plepler's departure as CEO of HBO signals AT&T's effort to manage its newly acquired Time Warner assets. https://t.co/D7uAu5wnum

Being both a platform and a direct competitor what responsibility does Apple have to treat Spotify fairly? Should they treat Spotify like a content provider or competition? #BCSTT https://t.co/LzgXRLKm2q

@Jingttj I agree, I’ve been wondering lately if Google could be the GE of our generation. GE took on more and more businesses, but is now being forced to sell them off. I hope this isn’t the future for google. #BCSTT

As facebook pivots to a more private platform it should be interesting to see how marketers adapt, will they still be willing to pay as much for ads? #BCSTT

[WSJ Tech @WSJTech]

While marketers are very familiar with Facebook’s wide-open community, they are far less experienced with messaging apps, where Facebook is pivoting https://t.co/4FvZFYX89J

As I wrote about in my blog post, a single employee can compromise the data of an entire organization. Tessian aims at providing solutions to that problem. Hopefully Sequoia represents can speak about this investment when we visit them next week! #BCSTT

"Most of the security companies have been focused on software to protect systems. The thing that is distinctively different about @Tessian is that they are going to help you protect your people." - @mcmiller00.

WIth Elon Musks Twitter woes as well as Donald Trumps Twitter infamy, it makes me wonder when the challenges of social media outweigh the positives with regards to public figures. #BCSTT https://t.co/GIGw6AlwBF

@NastaKerry That is really surprising. That’s also the first new phone I’ve seen that isn’t a full touchscreen in a long time. Is there any benefit to a physical keyboard at this point? #BCSTT

[Matt Allen @Matt_Allen1998]

@mackenzie_deans I think a large difference between these two deals is the tax incentives given to Amazon. Amazon essentially required tax breaks from HQ2 cities, Google did not. I think this increases Google’s image to residents and chances for success. #BCSTT

Microsoft is taking a blue ocean strategy to its HoloLens, this could potentially be a significant competitive advantage in a fast-growing industry. #BCSTT https://t.co/KCCqvVcCuo

Researchers claim that cell networks from popular providers Sprint, AT&T, Verizon, and T-mobile were vulnerable to these attacks. If the findings are true, how will the carriers respond? #BCSTT

@tomolsen91 I found this distinction in culture about tech in New York is used to solve real-world problems and Silicon Valley is focused on cool tech. I wouldn't have made that distinction myself, I would love to hear someone from SF comment on it. #BCSTT
