Here's everything we read and saw happening on the internet...
New year, new beginnings, new things to learn. The past two years have been a blur. How will this year be different? Everyone is obsessed with Web3, Twitter > Instagram, people are quitting their jobs like never before, and Hollywood now premieres movies on HBO instead of exclusively in theaters.
Chasing trends is not a healthy way to live, but it will always be easier to find an audience when you are early to a trend. Joshua and I like to follow macro-trends with long tails that are picking up speed on the internet. In an attempt to stay informed, here’s a list of things we’ve been reading as well as some interesting job openings:
