1. Taking a look at the recent October @LinkedIn Economic Graph report on skilled talent flows across metros. Lots of interesting data here.

2. Here are the metros gaining the most skilled talent. Austin tops the list, Tampa and Nashville are in the top 5. But perhaps interestingly San Francisco & Seattle are also in the top ten.

Downtown San Francisco Can’t Shake Working From Home: "Compared with its former self, & even with some outlying city neighborhoods & suburban downtowns I visited, San Francisco’s downtown is still awfully quiet" https://t.co/B5ihdU9paI

Get out and sleep.

At #DesignMatters22, Tiziana Alocci (@Altiziana), shared new ways to communicate information using sound: from data-driven album covers to art installations. She brought us on a beautiful journey of sound visualizations

My brilliant colleagues have just launched this genius online tool for plotting where you think a parking space could be swapped out for community space - including data on access to green space, multiple deprivation and levels of car ownership.

Starlink 🛰️ is a game changer for the hospitality industry.

Elon's satellite internet cuts the prices by half while speeds are going up.

It opens so many new opportunities for workcations, offsites, and nomad stays in remote areas.

Repeat after me: good communication requires repetition.

Data: leaders are 9x more likely to be criticized for undercommunicating than overcommunicating. Those who say too little come across as unclear and uncaring.

When you're tired of your message, it's just starting to land.

"Public use and public funding of science"
Cool paper looking at citations to science from government documents, media and patents.
They find that different fields have different audiences, and compare this to another public good, national parks.

Thrilled to share Microsoft New Future of Work Report 2022 that summarizes recent research developments on hybrid work. It's so fulfilling to work with some of the greatest minds on this! #hybridwork #newfutureofwork

[Longqi Yang @ylongqi]

Our research just published @NatureHumBehav @NaturePortfolio suggests that, after removing the effects of the pandemic, firm-wide remote work causes a shift to async communication (not more meetings) and makes workers’ collaboration network more siloed.

Folks, I've got something exciting to share!: It's super hard to stay up-to-date on all the future of work research that is happening right now. So, working with tons of people around Microsoft, we synthesized it into a single slide deck: https://t.co/UkdAHazYyH #newfutureofwork

Interesting to see how the @nytgraphics has changed their map symbology as the Russian war in #Ukraine️ unfolds. On Feb 26, large red arrows and an almost opaque red color shows Russian advances in Ukraine. Suggesting fast, large and controlled overtaking. 1/5
