@bentossell Background replacement or style insertion tool for ecommerce images. We do a massive shoot once, but want to use that layout and style reference for all the subsequent products. Need to reshoot each time, so would like to just use the product images and style from prev shoot.

@JBagley I only use Spotify. Mainly because Apple sucks so much. That being said - I've got a handful of shows that I swing between so don't have a major discovery need. But yes... podcast apps are atrocious. Used to use something else but that was also bloated.

@Sarietha @siyafrica OMG no. He was one of my first hires at Isobar. I can't believe it.

Ok - i did what I needed to do, today. Tomorrow the grind starts again.

I am dropping the 5th episode of #TheNextChapter with Palesa Segomotso Motsumi this week. I have such a beautiful conversation with @Unodewaal. We spoke in the thick of the lockdown in 2020.

Today I found out: 99 per cent of the organisation's (the CPA) annual expenditure of $172 million was broken down into just four line items. Insane accounting practice...

@JBagley Ipad is good enough for that. Keyboard isnt great for long typing, but its doable (i’ve used it at times to draft mails/ideas). As a media device its great. A lot more friendly to lug around than a mbp

I’ve gotten a lot of bad advice in my career and I see even more of it here on Twitter.

Time for a stiff drink and some truth you probably dont want to hear.

@david_perell Everything is easier once you have an audience.

Launches are simple. Opportunities come to you. Plus, attention is flexible: you can direct it toward any future project.

Also, I'm not interested in managing a big team and one person with a big audience can still make a splash.
