@trevreidphoto @taylorfq6 @WSJ Definitely, but I don't see why this can't be considered a useful way of "handling it" for parents! It's unfortunate that the integration of a mediator into one the apps is necessary, but it sounds very useful. #IS6621

@taylorfq6 @WSJ In a world where there is an app for everything, I am not surprised...but isn't it the responsibility of the parents to handle this? #is6621

Interesting integration of tech and family life - what are your thoughts on this? #IS6621 #C wsj.com/articles/when-… via @WSJ

"Blame it on the digital revolution, millennials, social media..." -- I think social media definitely has something to w/ companies becoming more socially active, since SM opened up so many controversial topics (money, politics, religion) up as constant conversation #IS6621 #C

The Ted2019 Conference basically had the same theme as our class! Interesting to hear the CEO of Twitter answering questions about the good & the bad of social media & the internet; is this a step towards transparency b/w tech giants & their consumers #IS6621 #C

@jrmarandola @MIT_AgeLab So interesting! Thanks for sharing!

@cgriffith418 Was going through some of this research from the @MIT_AgeLab earlier today- reminded me of your presentation, esp. their work on older adults and autonomous cars/smart devices #IS6621 agelab.mit.edu/transportation…

Wow, an NYC institution opening it's doors to Airbnb. With their other collab with the Louvre, Airbnb is gaining some serious clout. Any thoughts on what's next? I'm thinking Cinderella's castle at Disney #IS6621

The growing pains of digital advertising...the company I interned at used MailChimp; it took hours to create something we thought would be remotely beneficial, and the benefits were definitely questionable #IS6621

@DanCreedon4 @kegallagher18 Is there any type of rewards program for Airbnb? I never use it so I don't know, but seems like it would be really helpful for them if they want to defend against Marriott & others #IS662

@kegallagher18 As a Marriott rewards member, I am much more likely to book homes through Marriott than Airbnb, especially since I can redeem points/receive points #IS6621

Can Marriott be successful in this area? #IS6621 #C

It could actually be useful for translating any app onto the TV. I can see it be really helpful for home work-outs, sorry Mirror! #IS6621

@JaclinMurphy I actually think this is great! SS has been an institution in American children's lives for generations, and they have tackled some really important issues. Good to start this message young and have it coming from characters kids trust if we really want to make a change #IS6621

When Sesame Street gets involved, you know we have a real problem on our hands #is6621

@JesseRosenber14 Would be interested to hear you see this relating to social media and digital business...something about our changing priorities and lack of nostalgia? #IS6621 #C

The history of Penn Station is important to recall especially when the NYC has allowed social media and businesses to flourish - #IS6621 - nytimes.com/2019/04/24/nyr…

@DililloMelissa My first reaction would be that I would not want a delivery person to be able to open my garage, since it has doors into the rest of my house. But, plenty of people let strangers into their houses to clean or walk dogs, so I'm sure there will be market for this feature! #IS6621

Would you be okay with allowing Amazon to deliver packages to your garage? You'd have to opt into this service, but it's now doable. Nothing surprises me anymore! #IS6621

@KimHaysIS6621 @WSJ Does anybody else almost constantly have about 30% off Uber at 10-20% Lyft? Constant discounts make me think their prices are already too high, so I can't imagine how this will go over. They'll definitely need to step up their customer service #IS6621

All this hype around Lyft and Uber's IPOs might not be so great for the little man (me trying to Uber to SweetGreen) as pressure from investors to get into the black causes a hike in prices. #is6621 wsj.com/articles/why-t… via @WSJ

@kgcorrigan @jrmarandola I agree this is such an interesting topic. It's incredible how much of education is dependent on a few key platforms. It's troubling from an psycho/neurological perspective, but also makes me thing who's really curating our ed. system #IS6621

@jrmarandola So interesting - I didn’t realize these programs were widespread. I think the alternative approach can work in specific situations (which I have witnessed firsthand) but definitely cannot replace traditional teacher-led classrooms #IS6621

Should FB-backed personalized learning platforms go the way of MOOCs or is the backlash to Summit truly just “nostalgia”? I can’t imagine learning anything this way or feeling even remotely connected to school without an active teacher role #IS6621 #C nytimes.com/2019/04/21/tec…

@MasonPeterman @Natalie48037609 Sure, but I don’t think their digital health venture will help the real majority of their customers — non-cigarette smokers, young adults, etc. I wouldn’t trust them at all to get into digital health unless they start being honest about who’s really using their product #IS6621

@Natalie48037609 The claims that they are substantially better for you than cigarettes almost seek out the window at this point. I don’t think we know the real effects and getting some concrete research could be huge for them #IS6621

I feel it would be a good decision for juul to do at least research in the health field, because many potential users are afraid of the health consequences of using their product #is6621

These seems well-intentioned, but I have a feeling it would be a bad move for IG...what do you think #IS6621 #C

Update on presentation! Opportunities and challenges regarding using tech to take care of the elderly #IS6621

Slippery slope... #IS6621

@matturally @JaclinMurphy @matturally, do you think you'll use it as your primary phone? #IS6621 #C

I know the point of this is to help us deal with our addiction to social media and curb screen time. But my first thought is that I need to tell my technologically challenged family members about this. Dad, grandma, aunt Linda, the list goes on #is6621

@OliviaCrowley96 Oof Apple in healthcare...creeping towards the creepy side of creepy/cool. But, I guess they do already have a lot of health information with the Health app #IS621

@Oneil4131 I feel like Walmart is trying to be what Amazon physical stores would be like...I wonder if Amazon will let this happen. Walmart could be a pretty viable competitor if it uses its physical footprint the right way #IS6621

Walmart is ramping up its digital & AI counterparts to keep up with Amazon: autonomous floor scrubbers, automated in store pickup kiosks, automated unloading systems and much more. Does some of this sound familiar? It is! #is6621 #C techcrunch.com/2019/04/09/wal…
