I still remember first watching the latest pop videos come out by watching The Chart Show on Saturday mornings on ITV growing up in the early 90s - before the Internet and before any of us had Sky and fancy things like MTV

I’ve found Evri pretty reliable and good for tracking too. What issues are you experiencing with them?

A call to arms from Malik Lakoubay at @radxchange.bsky.social - independent news media are at existential risk from AI. Trusted data intermediaries such as Syft offer a solution.

Excellent overview of the opportunity and risk of personal agents by Jogi Poikola at #mydata2025

Great set of principles too, drawn from the history of #mydata and #VRM thinking

Yeah absolutely! Funnily enough the original business owners are apparently keeping the WHSmith brands for airports and train stations which are the most profitable!
