Hi friends,
Happy new year 2022 and Greetings from Bombay!
This is issue no. 204 of this newsletter.
Towards the end of 2021 (Nov-Dec months) I started focusing on Twitter. Twitter is a breeding ground for ideas. I love new ideas and love to expand on them and see them come to life.
On Twitter I could find so much knowledge and wisdom shared. But you have to follow thought leaders not just anybody. I must know which niche you want to expand into and then start following the thought leaders in that genre.
As I’m trying to get back to the weekly consistency. You’ll see more of Twitter content and ideas flowing in this newsletter.
Cheers!
Issue 204 // Week 1 // 2022
One of the Twitter account I’ve been loving to follow —
Roller – She is a NYC based artist and photographer, who is really active in NFT space. She organizes Twitter space where like minded people join in and discuss Art, NFT and cryptos.
I’ve seen her mint really interesting Art pieces on Foundation app (web3 based) and get massive value from those pieces.
Check out her Art Page on Foundation app here.
A Podcast episode I loved —
The unlimited potential of Web3 with Alex Ohanian – This episode of Where it Happens podcast with Alex Ohanian was full of knowledge about Web3 and intesting stories from Alex (founder of Reddit)
A movie I really loved —
Greyhound – I watched this Tom Hanks movie this past weekend. It’s inspired by actual events from the Battle of the Atlantic in WW2.
Tom Hanks stars as a first-time captain who leads a convoy of allied ships carrying thousands of soldiers across the treacherous waters of the “Black Pit” to the front lines of WW2.
This movie has Brilliant cinematography and story telling.
The captain and his convoy must battle the surrounding enemy Nazi U-boats in order to give the allies a chance to win the war.
Great watch, highly recommended if you like war movies and Tom Hanks.
A great tool for creating workflows or business flows —
app.diagrams.net – In my recent high ticket projects where the requirements were changing drastically and I had to be on top of the technical integrations. This tool really helped me make flow diagrams and business flows to build API integrations and solutions with.
Quote which I found meaningful –
“People who write a lot, also listen a lot. They also change their mind a lot. Not necessarily with new data, but sometimes re-analyzing the same data. They also work hard to disconfirm fundamental biases.”
— Jeff Bezos
Until Next Saturday!
