@mrajchan Artists should still get an appearance fee for the Super Bowl based on principle, but it’s an unbelievable performing platform. Looking forward to the show!

@mrajchan @businessbarista Good point. Customer support is incredibly important- folks absolutely remember and make future choices based on their best (and worst) CX

“People check Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter. They watch TikTok like Netflix and Hulu” -> Comparing TikTok to NFLX/Hulu is a stretch as their core distribution platforms (phone vs. TV) and biz models (ads vs. subscriptions) differ https://t.co/KqHYu3AtNL

This chart has been in my feed a lot lately, and I don’t quite understand the point other than that AirPods are popular? People buy them bc they’re made by Apple and part of the Apple ecosystem. IMO you can’t really break them out and compare them to tech/media companies

[Jen Zhu @jenzhuscott]

AirPods generates more than 6x revenue than Twitter.

@TenuredRadical @wesleyan_u Oh no!! I’m so very sorry to hear that. I had the privilege of doing an independent study course under her supervision. She was a truly remarkable professor and will be missed greatly.
