An opinion piece our founder wrote on the streaming industry premise that line sports (or news) being “as easy to watch as turning on a TV”
So why is watching live sports in OTT apps such a pain? streamingmedia.com/Articles/…
A bit of our research on the state of streaming, courtesy of @streamingmedia streamingmedia.com/Files/Dow…

One ways @HelpMeStream helps the overall streaming market is through primary research projects like this one we've partnered with @streamingmedia on. Plus you get a chance to register for a drawing for an Oculus Quest 2!

We don’t use referral codes to make money if you buy a products we test/review. We’ll shortly be posting a review of the very sturdy BrosTrend WiFi Extender 1200Mbps Internet Booster Wireless Repeater for Home, which we’ve been testing outdoors for 3 months. #streamingwithheart

What’s going on @CandidDotOrg and @GuideStarUSA ? Seems like chaos as we keep getting the same message every two days, followed a day later by confirmation they’ve successfully received required document. Meanwhile the profile they posted lacks provided info with no way to change

Oh and then we get a new case number every time we reply. We’re up to 3 now!

Ok all three @Guidestar Case # resolved and now we’re listed with an appropriate transparency ranking: guidestar.org/profile/84-469… Thanks to Robin for helping sort it out!

Working with new Sites in Workspace? @Google support says Site documents don't port like in Classic Sites. Creates a major hassle if you're shifting primary domains--ask us how we know ;-) #Duplicate Site docs is key since renaming users doesn't shift Site to new primary domain!

And then don't forget to share the #Duplicate Site doc when you republish under the new primary domain. It doesn't default to #public view for a very good reason!

Still waiting on @TechSoup to learn how to use the IRS not-for-profit search tool to verify that we're a 501(c)3. They wouldn't accept our scanned copy of the IRS letter, despite requesting it. Does easily accessible tech make for lazy research skills?

Today’s conversation with @TechSoup was basically “your 501c3 confirmation letter from the IRS doesn’t verify you’re a 501c3. Spend money on letterhead or a website to prove you’re a 501c3” A clever way to get 501c3 entities to spend money with @Adobe or something more sinister?
