Top takeaways from my video+gaming panel at #AllThingsRTC:
-Video chat can 4X usage & 2X retention for games
-Streaming is evolving from Twitch to narrowcasting to friends & live synchronous play
-Gamers need their own social networks or non-gamers get annoyed like Zynga+Fb
Video chat massively ups risk of abuse in games, including bullying of ‘default’ users who haven’t bought/earned fancy skins. Developers should look to safety-as-a-service providers like @TwoHatHQ & @AntiToxinTech
The social+gaming industry loves the validation of Epic/Fortnite acquiring Houseparty, even if it wasn’t a big financial win. It’ll make it easy to squad up before play. Thx to our panelists & attendees!

Instagram wants to steal messaging from Snapchat with its new Chat Sticker for Stories that lets viewers ask to join a group chat with you. #ThisIsMyPost
Smart move for Instagram to parley success cloning Snapchat Stories into attacking Snap's stronghold of chat. Naturally @wongmjane spotted this 2 months ago. Here's how the new Chat Sticker works:
What Instagram really needs is a way to breathe life into IGTV, which feels stiff & boring compared to Tiktok's bite-sized entertainment. More on that and our early coverage of the Chat Sticker here techcrunch.com/2019/05/20/igt…

I kinda wonder if the rise of podcasts is just a symptom of our mental health crisis and the prevalance of loneliness.
Hear me out...
Podcasts replicate the soothing feeling of talking with a close friend -- relationships many find frey with time -- without the pesky chore of actually having to help or be there for them. They give relief from loneliness even when we're exhausted...so perfect for commutes!
Podcasts also let us hear voices in our head without being "crazy". Talk radio has been popular for decades with conservatives that tend to be more homogeneous so broadcast radio works. Now heterogenous liberals are tuning into podcasts because they can sort into their niches.

This startup is crazy. Helium's IoT network has 200X range of Wifi at 1/1000th cost of cellular...but relies on $495 P2P routers it wants people to buy to earn its crypto token... tcrn.ch/2IG2LDb
Helium just raised a $15M Series C bringing it to $51M, and it's signed up Lime & InvisaLeash to use its cheap trackers. But will enough people buy the Helium Hotspot? tcrn.ch/2IG2LDb
What wild luck to spend 6yrs building a wireless protocol startup and then to have the perfect use case -- rental bike/scooter tracking -- emerge the year you launch.

My new visual reconstruction of #Maidan massacre in #Ukraine & bullet holes locations shows that snipers from Maidan-controlled buildings and not Berkut police & government snipers massacred Maidan protesters. View is from Berkut barricade spot. #Майдан #Майдан_5 #Майдан_5років
Bullet holes, which were identified in government forensic expert reports, videos & photos, as being from directions of this Hotel Ukraine & other Maidan-controlled buildings are within the massacre area, locations, height and directions of shooting of the Maidan protesters.
My visual reconstruction based on government forensic expert reports, videos & photos of bullet holes locations shows that Berkut police & Omega snipers were generally shooting above Maidan protesters at 2d & higher floors of Hotel Ukraina & in electric poles, flower box & trees.
