    How James Bond Helped me Make Sense of the Facebook (and Twitch and TikTok) "problems"

    Shaken Not Stirred Coinkydink or Not?  All of Facebook's properties go down due to networking "configuration changes". Then TikTok goes out for a few hours. Shortly after, a massive Twitch hack due to a "server configuration change" releases just about everything of note from the streamer including source code, earnings for top streamers and much more. To quote Bond super-villian Goldfinger, "Once is happenstance. Twice is coincidence. The third time its enemy action." Wheel of Snapchat! It started out so well – Snapchat spent a million dollars a day to get creators to post short videos on Spotlight. But it didn’t last long. Now instead of paying creators outright it plans to enter them into a raffle instead. In other words, if you make great Snap Spotlight content, you earn the right to maybe, possibly, perhaps win a few bucks. Imagine if I tried that at VidCon. “Hey team, love all the great work you’re doing! You’ll all be entered into my ‘VidCon Challenge’, where one lucky employee actually gets paid each week”. That won’t fly here – and likely won’t incent creators either. Even if they could get Vanna White to hand out the prizes. So much for IGTV. Rewind is Dead too. Facebook encourages hate speech for profit, says whistleblower: The whistleblower behind the leak of an enormous cache of Facebook documents to the Wall Street Journal, Frances Haugen, went public on 60 Minutes on Sunday, revealing more of the inner workings the most powerful social media platform in the world. Revealing her identity on national television, Haugen described a company so committed to product optimization that it embraced algorithms that amplify hate speech. BOOK TOK!

    A Mercenary, a Barbarian and a Thumbnail walk into a Room….

    YouTube Killing Off the Thumbnail: If you’re a YouTuber, you’ve likely stressed over the perfect thumbnail for your video. Consultants, A/B testing tools, and even sessions at VidCon have helped countless creators optimize for clickability. But it looks like the thumbnail is being upstaged –– at least in search –– by auto-generated chapters and time-stamped images. Sounds good for users, but somewhere Jeremy Vest is tearing his hair out. Head of Instagram Adam Mosseri visits Bloomberg Technology to talk to Emily Chang about new products features, the booming creator economy, and the role social media platforms play in content moderation - mostly around video first content & new features.  This interesting 12min of video covers a big swathe of information on Instagram & where it's heading. What really intrigued me was the "Insta for kids" bit at th 7min mark. Kids under 12... how do you make this safe & build it for parents to really be able to monitor kids' time on site & safety when parents are already frazzled & phone addicted? HOW DO WE SET KIDS UP FOR SUCCESS & MENTAL HEALTH & SAFETY ONLINE IN A WORLD WHERE THEY'VE NEVER KNOWN ANYTHING OTHER THAN BEING CONNECTED THROUGH SOCIAL MEDIA? WHAT ARE THE RIGHT STEPS TO TAKE? When Creator Funds Run Dry? Everyone from TikTok and YouTube to Instagram and Snap has proudly announced their multi-million-dollar funds to lure creators to their platforms. But the lessons of the First Punic War still stand: when you buy a mercenary army, you have to keep paying up. Snap, alas, is learning this lesson the hard way. Has the world gone QAIQAI... WHAT THE FLUF?! The future of brands is in the metaverse! Rabbit faceGlobe with meridians. FLUFs are designed to be interactive and dynamic multi-media avatars, adapting to relevant content. So who do you think will be the first major brand to buy a FLUF?
