Feels like a lot of similarity between "bring your own AI API key" in the AI world and "connect wallet" in the crypto world.. feels like should be some new UX possible

Loved getting a demo of index.network this morning. Such a fascinating time for the web / search / discovery / knowledge.

I *still* think that it's too damn hard to create, maintain and publish small databases and that when we solve this millions of them will bloom.

Maybe index can solve that for us.....?

I'd love to finally do some crypto consulting work this year. Who's gonna play?

@dorian - digging your SoP project outline. If I'm reading it correctly it plays in a space I've been scratching at a bit...

There's a lot of individuals that use "writing on the internet" as a way to get attention and audience (see: mirror/zora).

Are there many web3 brands that are using content and writing as marketing?

Hit me up with examples

It's tough to extrapolate trends from anecdotal data but.... it's rough out there for independents and freelancers.

Hearing a lot of tough stories right now. The layoffs at tech companies are quantifiable - but leads drying up for indies is fuzzier and harder to see...

Now that Warpcast and Bluesky both have desktop apps I made a "tweetdeck clone" so that I can see them both side by side in the browser.

Here's a long, introspective post about roadmaps, delivering "strategy" work and business knowledge.

It's pretty raw, not well written and meandering but would love to hear what resonates?

Def feeling competing tensions between Warpcast and Bluesky. Both early, both seem promising, both have way more engagement than Twitter for me right now....
