Three Twitter threads worth your time

Oct 19, 2020

I share a weekly update on ways to be a better marketer, brand-maker, team-builder, and person. If you enjoy this, you can share some love by hitting the Substack heart button above or below.

Hi there 👋

This week, I received a beta invitation to a new tool called MyMind. It’s like if Pinterest and browser bookmarks had a baby, and that baby was raised by AI.

Here’s the site (they have a lovely homepage). It’s invite-only at the moment, but if you’d like an invite, I have five to give away. Hit reply, and I’ll get one over to you.

Wishing you a great week,
Kevan

These are 3 cool things I read this week on Twitter

I usually share cool links in this space, but for some reason, multiple Twitter threads caught my attention this week. Here are three favorites:

1 - Behind-the-scenes with Loom’s brand redesign

Stewart Scott-Curran @stewartsc

You may have seen us launch a new @loom today. Often when these things launch, the process is kept very opaque. Kept hidden behind a lot of slick visuals and aspirational words. We thought It might be fun to try and demystify the process a little. Thread -->

2 - Elizabeth Yin’s story of fast growth vs. slower growth

Elizabeth Yin @dunkhippo33

Time for another tweet storm! This one is about fast growth vs slower growth. And I'll start with a story about my friends. Read on >>

3 - Silly thread from Poolside.fm but also a very cool example of community interaction

@marty @marty

You can have a poolside.fm email address and pretend you work here for $1,000 That’s it, that’s the monetization strategy. I get to decide your job title though... I’ll tell you it in advance if you reply to this thread

poolside.fmPoolside FMThe sunniest spot on the internet. Poolside FM is an online radio station, playing an infinity pool of summer sounds. Swimwear optional.

Thanks so much for reading. Have a great week!
