The Los Angeles Area Fashion Industry ProfileCIT Group
The Los Angeles fashion industry remains an important economic driver for the region. It generates over $18 billion in annual revenues and employs nearly 100,000 workers who earn a total of $6.4 billion in income. While most manufacturing now occurs overseas, LA continues to be a leader in fashion design and maintains a prominent fashion district in downtown. New technologies have changed the industry, allowing designers to collaborate globally and bring new products to market quickly. The outlook remains positive so long as the region supports the industry through initiatives to promote the LA fashion brand, train workers, and address issues like immigration policy and regulations that impact small businesses.

Twitter Lists Made Social with Listly [infographic]Nick Kellet
The document introduces Listly, a service that allows Twitter users to create and manage lists outside of Twitter. Listly enables users to moderate lists, share them with others, and celebrate contributions. It also allows anyone to embed lists, helps the lists get found through organic search, and lets people subscribe to lists directly on Twitter.

Why You Need Twitter for your small business. This presentation covers the basics including why Twitter can be an essential marketing tool, setting up your profile, how to Retweet, Direct Message, and more. It also covers great ways to promote your Twitter page and easy tips and tools for updating it.
The document discusses slope and y-intercept of lines. The y-intercept is where the line crosses the y-axis and has an x-value of 0. Slope can be thought of as rise over run or change in y over change in x. To calculate slope, you take the change in y values between two points and divide by the change in x values between the same two points. The y-intercept is the y value of the point where the line crosses the y-axis at x=0.
Working from the bottom of the backlog - 1% dayPriyanka Bhasin
This talk was given at Last Conference, Melbourne on 30/06/2016.
All teams usually work on the top items of their backlog but we decided to dedicate one day to work from the bottom of the backlog, and that day was a 1% day.
Usually, the backlog of every product team comprises of cards that can qualify as “quick wins”, yet they do not see light of the day. This mainly happens because team and product owners want to work on things that provided maximum customer value. However, it is important to remember that some of these small improvements can actually delight your customers hence making a big difference.
This talk was our experience report of how we ran this experiment at a product team by putting the entire team on fixing these long impending quick wins. Criteria of selection was simple – anything that could move from “to do” to “done” in a day. It did require some prep work in order to execute the experiment successfully. But the result was fantastic, we managed to move a sizeable amount of cards to the “done” state, the team as a whole feels motivated and we are now looking forward to more such collaboration opportunities ahead of us.

More about the report: http://brand24.net/reports/top-most-interactive-tech-blogs
We analysed 2 476 124 interactions related to Top 30 Tech Blogs (according to Technorati.com list / 20th of October 2013). The primary goal of the analysis was to determine which tech blogs are most interactive both internally and on social media.
We created 14 categories to measure interactivity: average onsite comments per post, total onsite comments, total Facebook likes, total Facebook shares, total Facebook comments, average Facebook likes per post, average Facebook shares per post, average Facebook comments per post, average Facebook interactions (total) per post, total Twitter shares, average Twitter shares per post, total Twitter + Facebook interactions , average Twitter + FB interactions per post.
The blogs that appear most frequently in the top 5 for the mentioned categories are: Theverge.com (13 times), Gizmodo.com (12), Mashable.com (12) and Businessinsider.com (11). Mashable.com always takes either first or second place, whenever it shows up in one of categories.
In the analyzed period Mashable.com generated the highest number of interactions (more than blogs number 2 and 3 combined). Businessinsider.com was the most engaging blog on Facebook, where it generated nearly 120k FB comments. It would be more than all other chosen blogs altogether, if it wasn’t for Mashable.com, which generated more than 95k comments.
The Verge and Gizmodo lead the way in terms of number of regular/onsite comments with well over 20 000 total comments each.
BusinessInsider.com was the most active blog, generating almost as many posts as blogs number 2-5 combined.
Macrumors.com was the most onsite-engaging blog with an average of 149 comments per article .
Mashable and BusinessInsider generated the majority of Facebook Likes during our analysis. Both generated about 250k fb likes. It is especially impressive for Mashable which generated more Facebok likes than BusinessInsider while generating 3 times fewer posts.
When it comes to Facebook shares, Mashable.com is the victorious blog with nearly 150k shares. Mashable.com owes its victory in this category to its high number of average Facebook Shares per article (407 comments per post).
Twitter users mostly shared articles from Mashable.com and Gizmodo.com, which generated altogether over 450k shares. In comparison, all other blogs combined generated around 440k shares.
