Very sad to see passing of Chris Spatola @espn . In high school, spent many hours w/ him shooting hoops after practice, his dad was our football/hoops coach. Followed his career. He was an incredible kid - sweet, driven, respectful. Best to his family. https://t.co/rcNfC252g8
Was picking up books at local bookstore. randomly saw this book. One of the best lines applies to life: “Write an imperfect story. You will edit it later.” Don’t know author but bravo on great advice for storytelling https://t.co/qHhqGor4wA
Hot take: I think @Muse is an under-covered significant change to the future of consumption & commerce. After testing it, Muse deeply changed my content use. If content=king, distribution=queen, Muse=prince. Muse type products will reset even biggest platforms (vid/shop/news)
.@Cannes_Lions is always a special event but made more special this year by Disney / ESPN announcing a partnership with our team at @Flowcode & @PublicisGroupe Sports to power @espn Fan House for 2026 College Football 🏈 Thank you to @ritaferro, Leader of @disneyadsales. Let’s kick off! 🚀
@RonConway Ron - you are the human router of success and help for so many people. You are one of one in the world. We love you and we are praying for you and the family. You have a great home game and team at UCSF - go win - TA
George Washington rode through Greenwich April 12th 1776 - reenactment happened today. People broke out in song. I love America. All of it. Incredible journey for 250 years with all the ups and downs - but the ideas and progress have changed the world.
@DukeMBB@UConnMBB such a great reminder that success has no age requirement - a freshman (Mullins) hit the winning shot but it was a senior (Karaban) who passed the ball to him with 3 seconds left. Teamwork is trustwork. Both teams/coaches inspiring.
@gokulr@joannezchen@gokulr@joannezchen There is a such a clear change in the roles (product/tech, execution skill sets / relationship skill sets). It is a Frederick Taylor moment The Principles of Scientific Management https://t.co/X2VUdMySLF of how work gets done. Different skills/process.
In 1999 business trip, read @HarvardBiz article by Peter Drucker - “Managing Onself” https://t.co/Od76yPAnQM - changed my viewpoint - strengths, relationships, how people learn. Ai is changing work. A human’s natural skills aren’t. Young leaders must read. Just re-read.
Most brands measure clicks.
But what about the people who actually show up?
If someone burns cash or calories to interact with your brand… what are you doing for them?
Predictions for EOY 2026 after CES:
1/Data Infrastructure: CleanRooms will be replaced by CleanAPI's (collabs)
2/PolyMarket is single biggest hidden asset for future of content & CMS strategy
3/Personalized Ai Influencers: 25% of your digital consumption
One highlight this summer was being able to spend time with @DogonMo. I met Dogon almost 10 years ago on a video call from my children's school to his refugee camp in Rawanda. Dogon ended up coming to the US and going to @nyuniversity - and writing a @nytimes best seller on being a refugee and a survivor of the Genocide in Rwanda.
Dogon was nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize this year. He is just getting started and was a great addition to our lives and family....and fun to swim with him in the ocean this summer with Dogon and my son Jack....and hang with Nancy, Hope, Summer, my parents, and our whole extended family....

In Real Life > In Remote Life.
At @Flowcode, our product shows up IRL, and so do we. Remote work always has a place, but career growth, culture, and connection scale faster when humans are face to face.

AI is the 1,000-pound gorilla in every boardroom right now. Some leaders are optimistic but cautious, others are actively questioning its long-term impact. At Flowcode, we’ve made our position clear... we’re fully embracing it.
