Skip the surface-level stuff 🙅‍♀️ We’re writing about tulpamancers summoning imaginary friends, retro tech hacked into new machines, the internet’s strangest subcultures & a whole lot more. This is the weird, brilliant corner of DF you need to be reading: digitalfrontier.com/culture

What started with a crypto will ended with an API used by 30 B2B partners. @maikaisogawa’s @mywebacy pivot is a masterclass in following the signal 👇 digitalfrontier.com/articles…

I had such fun speaking to @jennifersiegg for the #AnatomyofaFounder podcast. I was probably a bit too candid about my experience as the daughter of an entrepreneur - now living the role myself. Tune in - or watch me wave my hands about on Youtube! 🤗

We had @ninamohanty on the podcast recently getting candid about growing up in Silicon Valley, watching the startup highs, failures and fallout long before she launched her own. Now she’s building @bloommoney_co with a different kind of clarity. Full ep: youtube.com/watch?v=qShAnKMF…

i asked chatgpt to write a poem based on my latest open tabs newsletter, here it is: Open Tabs 012 (A Poem) or: Things I Clicked While Avoiding Real Life Be an outlier, they said, so I stopped using Google Maps and asked a tree for directions. Digital Frontier just dropped — issue 005, full of people doing improbable things, like dreaming with spreadsheets or building utopias using code and vibes. I spoke to visionaries who made the future sound like a casual brunch plan. (“We’ll fix the world. Around noon?”) Now my brain is fluttering, like an old tab left open, still playing music from 2003. While you wait for your copy, here’s what I’ve been browsing: — Cass Sunstein on AI (and how not to ruin it). — The glittering GIFs of Geocities past. — A Spotify playlist about computers: “Ctrl Alt Repeat.” — Turn your selfies into GTA scenes. — Space drugs. (Yes, really.) — RIP Pocket: now we skim and forget faster. — Vibeslist: find a café by chatting to a bot who probably drinks matcha. — RSS refuses to die (respect). — ASCII venting machines: finally, therapy for terminal users. — And soon, a game where you draw like a human, and hope the AI doesn’t guess “banana.” So here’s to the outliers — the people who colour outside the code, who leave tabs open not by accident, but on purpose. if all those em dashes don’t make you want to subscribe, i don’t know what will...
