Oh, great. Now I can't make my f***ing turkey bacon in the microwave because "they" can take pictures of me. #airquoteswiretapping. These bats*** crazy POTUS reps now quote wacky news as their source. KELLYANNE CONWAY. STEVE BANNON. STEPHEN MILLER. And on and on. These are some of the most atrocious people I've ever witnessed... I love stories. And the art of storytelling is alive and well on the internet. Discovery may be an issue, but the articles, podcasts, and videos are out there. At REDEF, we believe curators (or influencers) will be key to unearthing them. Yes, technology will play a role in hunting and gathering but the nuance, taste, and context of a curator are very important. We're proud of what we do. Over the past century, technological advancements have massively reduced the cost and time needed to create and circulate content. Though this has liberated artists, consumers are now drowning in a virtually infinite supply of things to watch, listen to and read. We take a look in our REDEF ORIGINAL: "Age of Abundance: How the Content Explosion will Invert the Media Industry"... THE NOTORIOUS B.I.G. (aka Biggie Smalls aka Biggie aka Big Poppa) was considered one of the greatest rappers that ever lived when he was murdered at the age of 24. A look back at his career and the crime... My dear friend QUINCY SMITH (also our banker and investor) and I have often discussed the differences between media and tech when it comes to M&A and strategy. He talks to KARA SWISHER about how "when times get tough, media consolidates. Tech? Not so much." He's right... Frustrated is my most recurring emotion... Some are scouting SXSW for things to avoid. DIGIDAY and JOSH FELSER... When I'm down I think of MICHAEL CERA in THIS IS THE END... Visited FACEBOOK yesterday. The energy is amazing. The place is hopping. The campus amazing. In awe of the food services and variety too. It looks like Main St. in DISNEYLAND. I mean that in a good way. Was waiting for a parade... Lingering software bugs grind at my molars... Happy Birthday to JOSHUA GRUSS, RITA GARG, MEG LOWE, MARGOT SCHUPF, DAN SCHNAPP and DUSTIN FINER .
