My mission is to discover the missing Internet manual that empowers everybody.
As my day job, I help build online businesses at Tumblr & WordPress.com. Both a psychologist and a computer scientist by education, I created this site to explore how global consciousness reshapes society, economy, labor, and art. I focus on:
- Helping to create a healthy economy in the magical land of the Internet,
- Making Remote Work work, so you get to find a fulfilling vocation regardless of where you’re born,
- Escaping the overwhelm (aka Reducing Cognitive Load).
- Battling the fake news epidemic
My best essays
- In The lazy way to being outstanding, I explain why grabbing the hardest problems around is in fact easier, safer, and more fulfilling than trying to “surf the bare minimum”.
- Micropayments are doomed explains the fundamental psychological problems with charging separately for access to each piece of content.
- Working from Home – a primer to get your team started is a playbook to switching your company into the remote mode, based on 15 years of Automattic’s experience as a remote company.
