Re: Terror-Tied Group CAIR Causing Chaos, Promoting Protests & Lawsuits as Trump Protects Nation

America is a nation of immigrants. We were founded on the premise of religious freedom and acceptance. Your statement is not only racist, but un-American. You should be ashamed of yourself, Sarah Snow.

Have any of you actually really tried to get to know any Muslims? Have you ever tried Shakshuka or falafel? Have you ever asked them what they want from life? Have you ever sought common ground?

Design is such an important part of everything we do in the interactive world and one size doesn't fit all. Looking forward to data and experience driven insights from Lisa and Kerry.

This whole app constellation thing is fetched for me. Splitting into multiple apps, switching between them is a hassle. It's interesting Kool-Aid, but isn't the place that a person goes still very instrumental in determining what would interest them? What's the atomic unit of interest if a user doesn't check-in? Search? Ratings? Tips? Friends?

You really should be posting the tweet with the person's handle so that people can judge for themselves whether these are true Boston Bruins fans and so that they can put social pressure on them. Why half-call someone out? Do it all the way!

Re: Your Reaction To Richard Sherman Says A Lot About You

Inspired take Andy. For what it's worth, my reaction was: Awesome to share a little post-game fire with the public. As someone who is still enormously competitive, I love to see this. The thing that tells you what kind of person Sherman is is how he handled himself after the interview. Did he pay respects to the 49ers? Did he encourage them to lick their wounds and come back better and stronger? How can you be the best if you're not playing against and proving it against the best?

This is shockingly awesome news. Calling Owen "shockingly nice" is like saying that Steve Jobs is fairly smart or that Nutella is pretty delicious. #understatements. Congrats to readwrite, Owen and RAMONA!

Customer service is an often overlooked conversation pillar in social. There are too many companies who are not doing it or doing it wrong. Marsha is THE authority and she's bringing awesome brands to this panel. WINNER.

This industry is crucial to the future of content. It's an awesome collision of technology and music. Music habits are a proxy for everything.

In a world where everyone is moving as fast as they can (toward a finish line they are unaware of) it's really hard to think about getting people to slow down and consider that what you have to say is meaningful. This will be awesome.

Distance. It's easier to work on a problem that is far away because a person can go to it, get involved and then, LEAVE with a story, a memory. You don't have to stay to see if your solution actually works, to live in the shoes of the people that you "helped". When the problem is close, own-able or yours, it's tougher to make decisions because you know all of the details, all of the gore and you have to live with your actions.
