Episode notes
Dropbox's New Search
- Dropbox is launching Dash, a universal search for personal files and web content.
- It aims to organize content based on projects, like a "Google for your personal stuff."
Twitch and Streamer Economics
- Twitch introduced content labels for mature themes, but their Partner Plus program only benefits a small percentage of streamers.
- Streamer xQc signed a $100 million, non-exclusive, two-year deal with Kick.
Netflix Ranking Change
- Netflix changed its Top 10 ranking to use "views," calculated by dividing total watch time by runtime.
- This gives shorter content a fairer chance and accounts for repeat viewing.
