The rise of the creator economy. Charlie Bit Me (recreated below by my sons) has now reached over 900M views and created a legacy of £1M related to the video. This stat in a recent BBC News article really caught my eye.

Fascinating.
It’s amazing to me that politicians don’t commit to post first on @bsky.app and to engage with constituents here
THIS is more powerful than CNN , MSNBC, The Post will ever be.
You can broadcast for 9 mins on a declining medium, or engage here and start a real discussion.
Which is more powerful?
