The Daily Loop #59
The Daily Loop. 3 quotes, 2 short form tweets, 1 long form read and 1 piece of advice from me. Consume 2 minutes of information to help you advance your knowledge in different fields.
I have updated the layout for Daily Loop. From now on it will follow a 3-2-1-1 design (quotes, short-form content, long-form content and advice). A focus on higher quality content, rather than quantity of content.
The Daily Loop newsletter focuses on information that can be consumed in 2 minutes every day by linking to posts across the internet, formatted in a way that is easy for anyone to navigate. In a 3-2-1-1 design (quotes, short-form content, long-form content and advice).
The goal is for as many people to read this daily and inspire them to think differently about certain things. It will primarily be around topics and industries I am interested in such as: startups, ai, success, innovation, change, crypto, nfts, etc.

Great tweet. The last sentence is incredibly true. The best thing is to do it as much as possible. Get rid of your ego.

The world is changing. And there are things that have to be done today. It starts small, then it gets worse.

WeChat is obviously massive. But this is the first time I heard of it being more than just a messaging app. Insane!
“People in China do everything from just ONE app - WeChat: Chat with friends, book a ride, buy groceries, scroll TikTok, make payments, access visa applications (government services), book medical tests and donate to charities”
1 piece of advice from me
Test things out in public. It’s been almost 60+ Daily Loops and we’ve decided to change the layout. A focus on higher quality, rather than quantity. Instead of mindlessly sharing content to fit the criteria for Daily Loop we changed it to serve the purpose (aggregating good content to deliver value for readers in less than 2 minutes.)
Nice catch..Speaking from my experience in china,WeChat is more bigger than mentioned in the thread..you wouldn’t see a single person without it..I’ve seen people in their 80’s use it with larger text(Accessibility), people in their 40’s & 50’s mostly communicate thru voice notes, and young people fixed on texting all the time..they do have other apps too that do all the same things individually but none like WeChat..
