Howdy Reader! If you’re anything like me, you're slowly walking up from the football and tryptophan hangover from overindulging in yesterday’s Thanksgiving festivities. If you’re reading this from somewhere other than the U.S. I hope you had a productive Thursday with many, fewer calories. And now, the Christmas season is upon us! Fun fact, “Jingle Bells” wasn’t always a Christmas favorite. Initially composed in 1857 as “One Horse Open Sleigh,” James Pierpont wrote it as a Thanksgiving Day song. The tune became such a Christmas sensation that by 1859, it was renamed “Jingle Bells.” Even back then, people had no control over what goes viral!

Howdy Reader! Two of our friends lost their Facebook accounts this month. Another got dropped into a 14-day comment jail on their own pages. And last week, Meta quietly launched a brand new app called Forum, dedicated to Facebook Groups. If you've built any part of your business on Facebook, this is the episode you need. This Friday, we're sitting back down with Paul Gowder, founder of PowWows.com and the person behind one of the largest niche communities on Facebook. Paul has been running an...
Howdy Reader! Right now, I'm looking out my window, and I'm seeing a ton of squirrels chasing each other around the yard. I've glanced out my window and seen tons of squirrels before, but I really never noticed them until this article I read by the researchers at the University of Exeter. They set up a little experiment. Eleven squirrels, one pole, two snacks. Climb a little ways up the pole, you get pumpkin seeds. Climb higher, you get almonds. Over four thousand decision tests, the...
Howdy Reader! I want you to try something this weekend. Open up whatever AI tool you've been paying for, ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Copilot, doesn't matter, and look at your last ten conversations with it. I'd bet most of them are questions. Ask, answer, copy, close. We're using one of the most powerful tools we've ever had on our desks, like it's just a smarter Google.
