Daily Thoughts 01/28/2018

I checked the library Twitter and Facebook this morning.

I spent some time looking at Share Your Story this morning.

I read some more of Data Strategy this afternoon.  I am reading about how to choose the right questions to ask for data analysis.

I also started reading The Victory Lab The Secret Science of Winning Campaigns by Sasha Issenberg.  I am learning how analytics are increasingly being used to help win very close political campaigns.
