Marc Hadzimichalis (left) and I struck up a friendship 20+ years ago. Matt Barrows and I visited his tailgate before 49ers-NY Giants game in '08. Marc passed away recently. He had boundless passion for the 49ers. Thinking of Marc's joy and positivity right now. RIP, MarcNJ49R.

I invite you to honor my mother, #CorettaScottKing, with me.
Without her, there would be no federal holiday commemorating my father’s birthday.
And @TheKingCenter, which she founded less than three months after Daddy was assassinated, would not exist.
I’m grateful for her commitment to freedom, true peace, justice, and Kingian nonviolence.
I’m inspired by her love for humanity, her faith in God, and her consistency to purpose.
Salute, Mama.

I’m grateful for your life.
I’m honored by your legacy.
I’m growing in your teachings.
May our commemoration move beyond quoting you (often in ways that are intentionally misaligned with your principles and steps of nonviolence) to hopeful, strategic, mass nonviolent action.
Thank you, Daddy.

I'm often asked about how community engagement fuels product growth. Growth isn't driven by the loudest ad—it’s about the quiet moments where users tell their friends, 'You have to try this.'
Build relationships, not just features. Relationships scale trust; trust fuels virality.

I’ve been shouting this into the void for years. The more online we get, the more we rely on trusted sources aka friends and family to help us make decisions.
The ~only~ way to scale consumer products is building great products and ensuring your customers know how much you truly care about them. Delight drives word of mouth which cuts through the noise and delivers growth.
Jeff Bezos explains why product is more important than marketing in the Internet era
In this 2012 interview with Charlie Rose, Bezos points out that the Internet has made word-of-mouth more powerful than ever. This, he argues, has dramatic implications for business strategy:
“In the past, if you were making a product, the right business strategy was to put 70% of your attention, energy, and dollars into marketing the product and 30% into building a great product. So you could win with a mediocre product if you were a good enough marketer. And I think that is getting harder to do.”
He continues:
“The right way to respond to this if you’re a company is to say, I’m going to put the vast majority of my energy, attention, and dollars into building a great product or service. And put a smaller amount into shouting about it (marketing). Because I know if I build a great product or service, my customers will tell each other.”

Possibly the biggest change in Microsoft Teams history?
Teams without the Teams? Public preview in November to desktop, mobile, iOS, and Android.
Here is what you need to know:
🟣 Microsoft is introducing a new combined chat and channels experience. Meaning chat and teams/channels will show up under the "Chat" sidebar icon. No more dedicated Teams sidebar button.
🟣 Teams and Channels will have their own section in chat.
🟣 Group your chats and/or channels however best works for you with favourites and custom sections (up to 50 sections and 50 items per section)
🟣 “Unread,” “Chat,” “Channels,” “Meetings,” and “Muted” Filters
🟣 New message can initiate a new chat or new channel post
🟣 New @mention view gathers all your mentions into a single interactive list.
🟣 At launch, a self-service, guided onboarding will help users discover the new experience and configure it to their preferences (on or off)
🟣 Users who prefer to keep chat and channels separate can easily do so during the onboarding process or at any time later. So far, it looks like there are no IT/tenant-level override controls.
This experience change is targeted at getting more users using teams/channels. Most Teams users live in "chats", not teams/channels.
There will undoubtedly be some pushback from users who use teams/channels well and like having the mental separation of teams/channels vs chats.
I've been fortunate to be using it for a while, and I'm personally a big fan; my use of the correct channels has gone way up, and now I can find them all in one place in the app, particularly on mobile. I'm now much more likely to see channel conversations I need to see.
What do you think?
