HQ Trivia's CEO confirms to TechCrunch that host Scott Rogowsky is out, replaced by comic Matt Richards techcrunch.com/2019/04/12/hq-…
Quiz Daddy took a sport show gig on the side, but HQ Trivia wouldn't let him just host weekends, so it ran a survey of top players who voted in Matt Richards. He'll have to revive HQ's plummeting download rate. techcrunch.com/2019/04/12/hq-…
I predicted HQ Trivia's host Scott would leave or get poached if not locked in with equity. A year later, we'll see if Fb or Snap try to snap him up for their own games. Farewell to Quiz Khalifa aka Trap Trebek aka...

Jumbo's privacy app will probably get shut down by Facebook, but it should still start a conversation about users deserving blanket controls tcrn.ch/2D0Ql6v
Jumbo asks you to type in your Facebook credentials so it can run a script from your phone to change your privacy settings. That almost surely violates Fb policy, and the giant promised TechCrunch a response on that
Jumbo investor Josh Miller sold his app Branch to Fb in 2014. Those with inside knowledge see a need for a privacy assistant

Evan Spiegel finally has a strategy to fight the clones: Make it easier to embed Snapchat than copy it tcrn.ch/2FUEg3I
By letting other apps like Tinder host its Stories, Snapchat colonizes the app ecosystem and expands its reach despite its struggle for user growth
If Snap doubles down bringing Stories & Bitmoji to other apps, it could recruit allies Facebook can't because of its toxic brand. tcrn.ch/2FUEg3I tip @techmeme

1/ Okay perfect time to do a little tweetstorm on my reactions to this slideshare from @randfish.

The data here is isn’t surprising if you examining your own consumer habits...is surprising if you market the opposite of your actual customers.

slideshare.net/randfish/the-n…
2/ I still get clients who have facebook in the marketing strategy. It’s toug if you aren’t in a highly engaged Facebook group of your ideal customers.

It’s pretty much been pay to play for about 8-16mos and it won’t be going backwards.
3/ As @garyvee says, “marketers ruin everything”.

As a correction to the influx of bad/annoying actors, Facebook has been coming down strong on making tusers feeds less spammy (otherwise they won’t come to Facebook and make them ad revenue).
