Exceptional take. The era of human curators is next, as everyone short of investors are burnt out on slop.

On the music side, I think that's great news for record labels, music publisher, sync agents, supervisors, etc. -- anyone whose responsibilities rely on humanity and curatorship

A wave of thoughts I wrote yesterday and finished editing today.

Meandering Days

Random thoughts while working a day job you are not happy about doing. The writing this after several people played the "main character" card too hard. How does the world function when we all think we are the main character?

Yes; would be useful.

Love the project so far too. I’m using it as a way to distribute on-going thoughts and ideas in constant flux and fully finished essays.

This is a DRAFT. If anyone has thoughts, let me know.

I wrote and posted this essay in 2016. An update is needed. But I want to play around with Leaflet and start using it as a blogging platform. So here it is.

The Prediction Business

Businesses are in the prediction and risk business. No matter what, when running a business, there are going to be things that are known and things unknown.

Plan on trying something new here in Bluesky.

Some 10 minute thoughts on media leverage.

Media Leverage

It’s no secret media and code are the tools of leverage in the 21st century. Both scale infinitely. And anyone can do both.

Me: I’m glad I got the dog in a raincoat for this rain and 800mph wind gusts blowing branches and trash everywhere. This weather is gross.

My Neighbor: Sure is a great day to mow my lawn.

We are not the same.

I second this.

Remember to fill out your bio to help discovery and curate from starter packs. Also be active in following back and finding people. It’s like the early days of the other place !

Someone in the Justice Department definitely had one too many tabs open at once and had their computer freeze. This is the true legacy of Chrome.

Agreed. I’m not going to say one is better than the other either; both have their use cases. But with all the complaints of “how far” Google has fallen from a lot of people in tech, it’s easy to forget how GREAT their ad platform can be when locked in.

Casey ONeill @cponeill.com · Nov 18

LFG!!!

Suppose the time has come to really learn Google Ads Editor.

Casey ONeill @cponeill.com · Nov 18

No it doesn't. Not at all.

Casey ONeill @cponeill.com · Nov 18

PPC advertising is such a different beast from FB ads. I know there is a lot you can do within Meta because it's intuitive to use. Google Ads is a beast. And when it works, it works really well.

I will admit the optimization score drives me a bit nuts sometimes.
