In case you thought that there’s not much variety in music these days … turns out that at the Macro level - you are spot on.

🔗 🎵 Global Album Charts - IFPI

TL;DR

Taylor Swift and Kpop - that’s (just about) it.

I think micro.blog is going to get very interesting once the APIs for all these random social networks fill out.#

💬 Dave Winer

Nice - and prolly right. Which reminds me.

Blogrolls …

On the @dave blogroll 🔗 at scripting.com his order pushes blogs with ‘latest post’ to the top - any plans on something like that for Micro Blog @manton ?

The Ticket Master rip off discussion often pops up into the feeds - so this one doesn’t surprise me 🔗 Explosive New Documents Unearthed On Live Nation/Ticketmaster

🔗 These 50 companies have donated over $23 million to election deniers since January 6, 2021 (In case you were wondering.)

I was - which is why I will be back later with some more thoughts.

🔗 Did Trump Just Get Bailed Out?

It’s rhetorical folk.

This very much resonates with my My People First thinking. 🔗 via Stowe Boyd - essentially - when you hear ‘the powers’ talking about how people are their most important assets and blah blah blah - would be interesting to learn how they really sit against this list/

At the beginning of the year I had grand plans for this series. A daily long-form post about something that was rattling my brain that day. And then life. For a while, I was even just dropping markers - to revisit. I came to realise that part of the problem was the complexity of the structure for each post - so that went away. Simplicity really is rather nice. As I write on 240413, I am now going back and filling in the gaps. PLUS - unless something strikes me immediately, I will not classify until the end of the day and go back to move one of the posts of the day into the 366. Also - if you are wondering how I have update the words at the bottom of over 100 posts at a stroke, well - THANK YOU Andy Sylvester and his Glossary plugin.

One URL - Many AIs to chat to … 🔗 Poe - Fast, Helpful AI Chat

🔗 Microsoft’s Brazen AI Inflection

What Om does not touch on is the issue of ‘acquisition’.

To this bear (and others), what also seems to have happened is that Microsoft has all but bought the company. but actually didn’t.

Why not just buy it?

Well because then you need permission from the Feds - if not the EU, which takes time and even then might not happen (remember Figma), and certainly in the AI space close scrutiny is happening.

Ok - not that close - but you know what I mean.

Watch this (tech bypassing pesky things like delays and rules and law and .. to accelerate and ‘avoid’ scrutiny) happen more and more in other places.

The Ostrom Sessions are part of a program running at Indiana University - curated and directed by Doc Searls.

They haven’t all been the best, though the speakers have always been ‘real names’. The video is the latest with guest Jeff Jarvis. This one was good.

Enjoy.
