Big news this week out of Australia, where social media giant Facebook removes all news media sources from its platform. In the end, it was inevitable.
This week Joe and Robert cover the big news that, after the passage of a media bargaining law, Facebook bans all media companies from its app. Shock abounds, with a number of sites that are "not" media companies being affected.
YouTube tries to be more like TikTok and Snap and launches a number of "short-video" strategies.
And news from the passion economy with the launch of Li Jin's Atelier Ventures, a $13 million fund to support content creators and content creator tech.
Rants and raves include Joe's take on non-fungible tokens (NFTs) and Robert's commentary on how tech companies are taking over higher education.
