@_msw_ It seems a great idea, the next iteration after podcasts and audio chats. Reading the name, some of the most technical of us (not the intended audience) might think about a much less enticing technology from another software player. I certainly did.

Chatbots, too:

Going forward, I’d expect #web3 startups like @opensea to adopt sales techniques and strategies from Christie’s and Sotheby’s playbooks.

Which reminds me of one of the greatest accomplishments in these 22y of career in IT: authoring a patent about #automation and #cybersecurity.

And it’s not just the adoption of technology per se. It’s how the technology is being used. The Ukranian army is doing a master job at using social media not just to document their success and keep the morale high, but also to maximize the awareness of the general public.

I’m going to guess that a significant portion of those 220M tweets was “I made an NFT, now what?”

In many ways, the invasion of #Ukraine is the first major conflict fully supported by technology: drones, cybersecurity attacks and defense, open source intelligence through online services, social media engagement at planetary scale. I didn’t see an extensive deployment of #AI

Another aspect that is rarely discussed about #web3: other global tech trends like #AI require highly skilled pros to develop/train and highly skilled pros to implement. But anybody can mint an #NFT. The perception, justified or not, is that web3 is within reach for all of us.
