Synthesizers! Just watched this video by David Perell and Matthew Kobach on how to use Twitter and build an audience and test (synthesized) ideas. David challenged everyone who wants to start Twitter to experiment Tweeting for 30 days - and see what happens. So, challenged accepted! Why I'm doing it? - To gather feedback on my ideas - To test what Tweets (formats) are working - To start building the habit - To see if the platform is a great place to connect with like-minded people So, for the entire month of May - I will send out a Tweet every day. Anyone cares to join? If yes, reply "Challenge Accepted!" - and let's start following each other so we hold each other accountable :) (You can find me here) PS. You can find my notes here so you don’t have to watch the entire thing: https://jordyvanbennekom.notion.site/How-to-Crush-it-on-Twitter-David-Perell-and-Matthew-Kobach-Workshop-YouTube-16d090502b2a47428af9ebcd17efbf24

I had always been hesitant about substack due to the fact that writers need to drive their own audience- organic audience-building within substack is very limited. But it looks like things are changing- Enter Substack Notes, a place to share and discover short-form written content (some are calling it a Twitter alternative) Read about a writer's take on Substack Notes here I think the exciting thing about Substack Notes is the incentivisation of sharing quality content, and the lack of ads. Could this be an optimal place to share and discover quality ideas/ content, and organically build a paid audience? For many, it won't be a place where their ideal audience will hang out, but for some of us, it could be a great way to find a like-minded audience who appreciate nuanced ideas. Interestingly, Twitter has apparently started to disable activity on Tweets that contain substack links since Substack Notes has been announced... may be a point of contention for those who already have a large platform on Twitter I'm by no means recommending this or claiming expertise. But I wanted to share as it struck me to be a Synthesizer-relevant platform update. I'd be super interested to hear others' thoughts on this. Especially if you're a Twitter or Medium user.

Hey there! I'm getting ready to lead a workshop for some teens about emotions and self-esteem. With your current wisdom, if you were magically transported back to your teenage years, what useful info, tools, or habits about emotions and self-esteem do you wish you had known about?

Hello, I would like your feedback on this short message I recorded. Does it have any impact on you? Does it motivate you? Am I able to attract your attention? Thanks!

Can this even be done via algorithms, or do we need to put additional manual work into this? (e.g. Dream 100 strategy --- direct outreach & connection, or local ads?)
