The idea of an Accelerator is not just getting questioned, it's (rightly) getting hammered by cities and policy makers. This has been building for about 5 years now, since the boom of "Accelerators" throughout the country picked up right after the boom of "coworking" about 10 years ago. And why? Because Accelerators are full of s*** for the most part. Glorified coworking with events, panel...
Are startup accelerators still worth it in 2025?

Without question, LinkedIn. Connections are far more meaningful and content is much more engaging. It's easy to scale up CHEAP followers on Twitter (or Instagram, or TikTok) but it's the value of the platform and community that matters.
Is Twitter the best social media channel for audience growth? What's your preferred channel?

This looks INCREDIBLE and something I've been longing for a decade. But (and this is a question more than a criticism), I've always bee leery of landing page optimization, multivariate testing apps, and similar startups or platforms that don't seem to even use their own thing... Here's why I ask.... I'm a lead. I'm probably a target too (I work in VC, run a startup incubator, and have some...

1. Talk to 500 people. Not customers! Not through forms or livestreams. Sit down and talk to 500 people about what you're doing. 2. Have a SOCIAL MEDIA experience where they can support you. NOT a BUSINESS page - something loosely related. As in, if I had a Facebook group for MediaTech, as we build what we're thinking, would you join? 3. Send them that. 4. Now, the secret trick to *more* social...

Key question: does Cross Platform include Slack and Teams or do we have to migrate everyone off of one thing on to this to make it meaningful? Desperately want something better, and this looks like it, but when people are stuck in their preferences (Google meet, Slack, SMS, etc.) and a solution doesn't work with their behavior, this is really only an Enterprise solution where HR/Management can...

This seems incredibly cool and very relevant to our work and community but I'm a little confused. Soundtrack for "your content" so can I upload a video and the AI figured generates audio that suits the tone of the video? Or do I have this misunderstood, that it's actually time limited / mood based generated music?

Can you clariy, the headline say all-in-one so does this aggregate messaging from Facebook, Slack, SMS, GroupMe, etc. or are you just saying that it's all the different forms of communication in one app?
