<li>] The Federal Communications Commission apparently intends to reclassify internet providers as "common carriers," the designation that provides maximum net neutrality in the United States and would legalize the practice of charging more for so called Internet "fast lanes," otherwise known as "paid prioritization." The FCC is scheduled to vote on the matter on February 26</li>
<li>] one of the most surprising decisions, was expected that Wheeler, who is an "industry" guy would rule in favor of the cable monopolies</li>
<li>] influencing factors may have been president Obama calling for it, the fact the many people(citizens) spoke out about the topic</li>
<li>] even people who are not tech people, now are aware of the subject of net neutrality</li>
<li>] well run campagign by nn advocates and push into the mainstream by tv personality John Roberts</li>
<li>] what it means it that we will wake up to the same internet that we have today, no preferential treatment for those willing to pay more</li>
<li>] its not clear at this point&nbsp;wether "peering" will be covered in the new model</li>
<li>] politics, lobbying, wheeler was a lobbyist, lobbyist will be rushing to congress, congress may fight this, then the fun will begin</li>

<li>] Twitter advertising will soon spill out of Twitter and show up elsewhere. The first locations will be Flipboard and Yahoo Japan</li>
<li>] twitter will use what it knows about its users, to target these ads</li>
<li>] the idea of using the data that is collected across social networks to serve ads is popular</li>
<li>] example ad - the tweet doesnt necessarily look like a promoted tweet, formatted more to look "native" to flipboard</li>
<li>] twitter acquired mopub, is this mopubs system or something seperate, likely using some of the same technology</li>
<li>] enables publishers and advertisers to be matched in the exchange</li>

<li>] A San Francisco startup called Eero wants to re-invent home WiFi for the home automation and Internet of things era</li>
<li>] 1 router functions essentially the same as other routers, if you buy multiple routers then the eero is better b/c of easy configuration of multiple routers, via a smartphone app that tells you where to locate them physically and also configures everything</li>
<li>] consumer product, premium, majority of houses sizes 2200-2500 sq footage</li>
