wednesday january 31st and you are here with adrienne and naumsh praff for 21 minutes of farcaster news to start your day and wow like i i think we have to start with talking about yesterday start with talking about ourselves so

0:27Speaker 1

i was gonna say

0:28Speaker 2

the same thing i was gonna say the same thing so our show is all about like what are the forecaster highlights and

0:34Speaker 0

we were one of them

0:34Speaker 2

there's only one thing to talk about yet from yesterday

0:37Speaker 1

it was amazing it was amazing it was

0:39Speaker 0

so good so that's why i've got jesse skiing in my background here with based god liam here that he was talking about at the end the show yesterday but that show with jesse was i listened back to it while i was going to work and coming back from work and like was laughing and was smiling through the whole thing and because i'd wanted to like there were so many nuggets that he said that i'm like i i wanted to remember and wow so what what what was your reaction to yesterday's interview with jesse

1:12Speaker 2

he's delightful he was like the just the best guest loved having him my my favorite favorite part is just the him him describing his reaction to frames like he's like we didn't get in we didn't know what was coming i'm a little sad little sad about that they they knew okay he said he

1:32Speaker 0

he said he knew no i don't think he knew i don't think he knew frames was coming i was a little sussed about do you know what's coming friday right i think if he doesn't know and i don't think he necessarily knows but i think he has an idea i think he has a thought of like what might be from discussions so that's what i'm guessing well

1:48Speaker 2

yes but he just the way he just said kind of the immediate moment and just how quickly they jumped on top of the hackathons and supporting and he said he like you and he didn't sleep for 3 days he's skiing thinking about it so just his enthusiasm for

2:04Speaker 0

thing was so funny so frame idea for whoever can make this what i would love to see is it is a little nowness ski lift and it goes up you press the button ski lift goes up you press the button jesse comes down and gives you a really good idea he skis down just like that with the punk head skis down and every time you see it you know thou shall be on chain it'll just be like some little saying i think that would be absolutely hilarious so please make that somewhat dropping down from the heavens just you know

2:35Speaker 1

if you were looking for

2:36Speaker 0

a frame idea because dan didn't give you 20 over

2:40Speaker 1

the past few days or 200 i

2:42Speaker 0

should say more like so we have so much going on and we were trying to organize links today and i'm like i i it's it's a it's just a lot but one thing we've gotta talk about we've got brand new frame validator is here thanks to gt plug in your frame to get quick feedback on what's working and what isn't so if you are developing a frame here's a little bit of a help for you and then we had g t got a bunch of frame improvements today so shout out to g t button redirects to send users out to websites clickable images so users can navigate back to your site frame validator which we just talked about and then v asks what else do you wanna see shipped because they haven't shipped enough this week the shipping will continue until q tau is achieved as cassie said we also have a little bit of an e you know explain it like i'm 5 on redirects so this is you know we get the dan interpretation which is lovely frames can now redirect you to a web page outside of war cast enables one click onboarding with prefilled profile friends customize web page based on your public farcaster profile social graph including on chain activity pay with crypto on that page so this is sort of helping with the whole flow of frames and giving it more meat if you will and we're again this is wednesday this dropped friday

4:15Speaker 1

it's it's the shipping is mind blowing like it's truly mind blowing

4:20Speaker 0

we had a bunch of frames yesterday too that dropped and i don't know which one jesse was talking about do you have any idea like i was thinking maybe it was chess the chess one i'm not sure which one i don't

4:33Speaker 2

know but he said there was gonna be something major so which one is it i could

4:37Speaker 0

i don't know i'm not sure but i think it might have been on frame chess so we've got from 5 out of 9 play full featured chess completely inside a barcaster frame you can do easy intermediate or advanced and i don't know how to play chess so i'm unhelpful in this regard but i'm just gonna like move some things around and see if i can do it oops no it didn't work for me so oh you just like click this little button that's what you do and it moves the it makes the move oh and it has it okay i haven't done this yet i didn't realize you have you're playing against the computer so you can just like click a thing and it's going to move the other opponent as well so that's to me that's gotta be the one because that's pretty cool like we've got a full functioning game happening within a frame without leaving warp cast that's pretty amazing and we've had some other ones too where you're you know doing more like text based games like you know what do you do now like you have a sword what do you do do you go in the cave what do you do all those kind of things but this is really interesting we also had this was pretty big introducing syndicate syndicate frame api the easiest way to mint nfts from a frame on base address lookup signature verification minting by sin sig syndicate gas sponsored by base so go to frame dot syndicate.io to learn more if you have an idea i would also reach out to them and see they're being super everyone's being super helpful of getting things on chain and then we had manuel manuel sell anything on farcaster use this tool to automatically generate a frame showcase your products allow people to shop directly in the feed the future of online shopping question mark i think yes and then we had sam actually testing that out testing testing you can still buy candles on humankind.place but we're testing out buying the candles right in the frame so you can actually preview the you can click through to choose which candle you want it's really pretty cool so this is you know the future is here here we are we're living in the future and then we've gotta talk about your background because this was what we were speaking about yesterday but we didn't show it and that is the cookies so the cookies that started it all and of course now i can't find that link of course not the cookies that started it all it's amazing i love the the flow for me was great but i'm wondering if they hit their limit so it was you know really like click click you add to cart and you have cookies being sent

7:29Speaker 1

to you so when we get them

7:31Speaker 0

i will i will share that on on air we'll enjoy some thin mints

7:35Speaker 1

so we

7:36Speaker 2

have an on air

7:36Speaker 0

we'll enjoy some thin mints in denver

7:38Speaker 1

we'll bring some to denver have some thin mints in denver

7:43Speaker 0

it's just overwhelming so what else did you see yesterday that maybe grabbed your attention adrienne that like got you thinking or what what is this like you know sort of drove in your creativity or your thoughts or like what you know what are you excited about

8:01Speaker 2

frames frame the frames excite me there wasn't i i think the the vibe on the feed is just frame overload there's so many frames i love i really like the shopping one it's just it's amazing to me how fast we went from kind of here's a poll like the first kind of like here you know your hello world implementation to the okay buying cookies or when i saw sam doing the candles and it's all still very primitive early but when you're here you can just you can see it's just you know it's like you know it's gonna get better you know it's gonna get smoother things get ironed out i tried to buy cookies actually last night because i and i i struggled a little i don't know what i did wrong

8:42Speaker 0

support cookie customer support please because the way that the flow has worked for me was you you know you see you choose which one you had like 4 to choose from you know i you know 6 boxes thin mints boom boom boom and then it sent me a cast the cookie account sent me a cast to finish the transaction so i think something in that process sounds like it broke down for you where you didn't get the cast

9:07Speaker 2

i'm wondering

9:08Speaker 0

i'm wondering if they hit a limit like they might have run out of inventory to be honest like

9:13Speaker 1

i don't know not gonna do that

9:16Speaker 0

who knows

9:16Speaker 2

no cut but but i just the way jesse described i know kind of the coinbase commerce in the back i was just so excited to to do it so i didn't get a chance yeah i guess yesterday also is the day that chris dixon's book came out in the us us only it sounds like not available in europe for our friends

9:33Speaker 0

he is going to be doing an ama as well we have a couple amas this week of course now i can't find that so chris dixon is doing an ama as is p marka mark and andresen jumped on and did an ama as well and so here's chris dixon's ama tomorrow 1:31 that's today 10 am pacific time so a few hours from now we're continuing the farcaster ama series tomorrow with the one and only cdickson.eth 10 am pacific so make sure you check that out and then we had pmarka pmarka

10:12Speaker 1

is doing impromptu ama and farcaster dan was a little shocked so that

10:18Speaker 0

was pretty cool so definitely check those out

10:21Speaker 2

hang tight did you read the ama

10:24Speaker 1

i some of it and it was it was it was interesting

10:28Speaker 2

what what motivates you what did you see his answer

10:32Speaker 0

yes yes revenge

10:37Speaker 1

like i really need more from that story i need reasons i really don't know

10:44Speaker 0

and then

10:44Speaker 2

and then he went on and someone said there were just i think it was justin asked a question but he said unfortunately life has been so good to him and he's had less people to take revenge on lately and it's very sad so someone go do him wrong we want more greatness

10:59Speaker 0

from him can be motivated to do something i thought that was

11:03Speaker 1

i'm not doing it i'm not doing

11:05Speaker 2

it someone else

11:05Speaker 1

goes wrong get on your bad side really we we we really don't we don't wanna motivate you in it anyway but but that was hilarious yeah what motivates you revenge there might we probably need to just mint that cast because it's pretty funny

11:19Speaker 2

oh that's right is there a frame how do we frame is there a frame to mint a cast what is i know people are minting cast is there an app i think there's a client is there a client that lets you mint something client someone is doing something

11:30Speaker 0

there was someone who had at mint it and it i don't think it's still operational because i tried it fairly recently but honestly i might just like

11:39Speaker 1

right click save as that sucker and and throw that on chain because it was pretty funny

11:44Speaker 0

so i loved that also we had another mint yesterday mint with warps remember those remember how cool that was like 2 seconds ago remember when

11:53Speaker 1

we thought that was like the biggest thing ever so

11:55Speaker 0

we've got a weekly mint with warps and this one is by light o x light and it is beautiful i minted a couple of these so it's pretty amazing so if you take a look at this it's quite a beautiful thing and you'll see a frame sort of sitting there in the background if you haven't seen this one yet go check that out it's we'll have that in the show notes as well so we had that and then we had a couple funny memes did you

12:22Speaker 2

meet with warps

12:23Speaker 0

i did not meet with warps yesterday you know why

12:26Speaker 2

i'm warped poor all of

12:27Speaker 0

a sudden i've used up all my freaking warps tipping people so i had to go buy more warps i went to mention with warps and i went i don't have enough warps

12:38Speaker 1

this is funny because i didn't win the channel

12:40Speaker 2

i went to create a channel i just assumed i had tons of warps like and i have almost none left

12:46Speaker 0

so we're warp poor because we keep and by

12:48Speaker 2

the way if you're hearing this please do not give me warps i don't need no

12:51Speaker 0

she's not do not want that for warps we don't

12:54Speaker 2

there's many other things you can do for me i don't need your warps but i am but i but i was sad i wanted to create a read write own channel for to host a book

13:02Speaker 0

club have you is anyone's hopefully no one's got that you better hurry

13:08Speaker 2

i don't need to own it i actually think someone i was gonna see dixon ama ask him to go spend some warps and host it but i'm hosting a book club in farcast her on read write own yep everyone's welcome all friends are welcome but i just so i started doing that

13:23Speaker 0

should get throw a channel together that would be cool i so that was the other thing so i spent 20 25100 warps starting a channel called on chain media so i did that and then i was tipping people like crazy the other day for trying to get uniswap to have some followers because i had less than a 100 and then hayden

13:44Speaker 1

i didn't i forgot to pull this cast

13:46Speaker 0

thanks hayden for appreciating my activity was like oh you know what brands shouldn't be casting on here

13:53Speaker 1

that's like killing me dude

13:55Speaker 0

the poor intern the poor uniswap intern is having a rough week i think you know but i think it brings up a good conversation about i've seen a couple people recently and we're gonna have a lot more because the mercenaries are at the gate but just in general coming on and not really knowing how to start where to start what's the right approach being nervous about trying to build their followers again like that was really interesting so back to uniswap for a second i think brands absolutely have a place on farcaster it's just not the same as what you're used to in every other social media like this is an opportunity if you take it to really connect with your consumers users your community so don't treat it the same like treat it differently and uniswap is a great example of this this is their people like these are your people yeah so use the opportunity to really connect with them rather than you're not don't use it just as a broadcast is is my suggestion because it could be a lot of fun you could be doing amas you know in your channel you you know and definitely leaning into the channel aspect as well for sure more so than the than the handle but just my my 2¢ what are your thoughts on that in terms of brands

15:11Speaker 2

are you seeing any brands yet or is it too early that you think are doing a good job

15:15Speaker 0

i think it's too early i i think the ones i see that are doing a job are just farcaster native companies that have you know sort of oh come from the ground up like you know jm farcaster but i think that's you know that's where i see it and the ones who are leaning into channels but i i think it's we don't have a lot of big brands all of a sudden showing up i think you know uniswap metamask metamask did a pretty good entry point i felt like they did it the right way they came in their founder got engaged and then they did an ama so it wasn't it wasn't like you know we're here and we're just gonna spit things out at you it was we wanna you know make this a conversation and i think that's the difference in on farcaster virtual

15:57Speaker 2

shout outs from the chat fabric ice breaker kiwi

16:02Speaker 0

yep exactly

16:03Speaker 2

yeah they're kind of farcaster native brands

16:06Speaker 0

they're farcaster native yeah exactly so all of the those are the ones that i think are you know

16:10Speaker 2

metamask is offering customer support well even in twitter like twitter early days the brands that jumped into twitter were very different and and kinda behaved different than other platforms and they were engaging and twitter was like the best place to get customer support because you were kind of talking to a person not the the the department but then so so maybe it's more of an arc of where you are when you're early and it's yeah if you're group chat vibes if you're early community yeah don't come in as capital b brand

16:40Speaker 0

exactly yeah like i would tell you right now disney won't do well on farcaster if it just comes in and and it's disney where it is everywhere else it will be they'll have no followers and it won't surprise me at all because it'll be the same kind of thing you'll you're gonna have to engage it's not the same and they shouldn't be there like they don't need to be there right now it's not you know the right audience yet unless they're gonna take a very different approach if it was the disney web 3 aspects of disney that they're starting to dabble with that's the perfect thing

17:12Speaker 1

for them to come in

17:13Speaker 0

with and to really source it to be you know to have farcaster be the source of building that aspect of their brand so we'll we'll see how it goes oh rainbow rainbow great example rainbow mike rainbow because he is a part of the community

17:28Speaker 2

oh and zora

17:29Speaker 0

and zora i know we can't forget them

17:31Speaker 2

again did zora i mean do we count mace

17:34Speaker 1

we don't

17:34Speaker 0

really know

17:34Speaker 2

a brand

17:35Speaker 1

i mean yes but no you know what i mean

17:36Speaker 2

that's what i mean like that even feel like a brand right like that's a the brands that are doing well don't feel like brands

17:42Speaker 0

exactly exactly the ones that are

17:44Speaker 2

doing well

17:45Speaker 0

on farcaster don't feel like brands and i do wanna mention so speaking of so song of day man this is what i've he yesterday said i i hate this long slog of building up back to you know my followers

18:01Speaker 1

and and i they said you

18:02Speaker 0

don't need 1,000 you just don't need 1,000 so he wrote a song about frames and the way he did it and it's not work for some reason youtube decided it was not gonna let me play this

18:13Speaker 1

right now so i don't know maybe they

18:14Speaker 0

know we're using unlonely for streaming and they're mad at me but it was really cool to see he took some of these casts they were included in the in the video and the way he does his songs he'll drop it 1 every day and then he drops it as a mint and you can mint it and it used to be an auction and now it's a an open edition so go mint that but also if you're in our chat right now i'm gonna give one away after the show i'm gonna go and grab all the names spin a wheel give that away and then i'm also giving away a farkyber subscription i'll circle back to that in a second but back to song of day man i loved seeing people we knew in the in the video like gabriel aso little my little nana's friend there and 15 minutes of frame everybody wants their 15 minutes of frame freaking brilliant freaking brilliant

19:07Speaker 2

does anyone know like i was saying would the people who have their casts and their 15 minutes of frame do they know they're in the song

19:13Speaker 0

i don't know we gotta tell them we have to we gotta tell

19:16Speaker 2

them know

19:17Speaker 0

i think they know by

19:17Speaker 2

the way

19:18Speaker 1

i'm sure

19:19Speaker 0

we'll tag you all so we'll let you know but i'm gonna i'm gonna give one of those away it was it's such a it's such a banger and i really wanted to start the show with it and it just wasn't cooperating but what like that's how you connect

19:31Speaker 2

yeah when you posted that i didn't i hadn't seen it i'm like what you know by the way do we really need to be going to other platforms why can't i watch video in warpcast okay

19:41Speaker 0

let's talk about friday we have something coming friday i'm not gonna be surprised if it is video in a frame what either that these are my predictions either that or an rss feed because dan posted something about rss yesterday just randomly and i'm like because that's what i've been asking for is something like that where you pull you pull the nft from zuora it automatically feeds into a channel and it becomes like a feed like you upload it to zuora and it happens automatically set it up and that that would be amazing and that would be a great way to do video as well so we

20:18Speaker 1

we would appreciate that should that be

20:20Speaker 0

a release

20:20Speaker 2

on friday i do yeah but i think the and this is a comment in the chat as well but there's been a lot as as as chris dixon is on the doing the rounds with his books there's a lot of talk about rss because it's kind of like that's where the internet splintered it was like rss open feeds right facebook

20:38Speaker 1

you

20:38Speaker 0

know social media i know that that's what's relating to it but it's also in my brain that like that is an obvious thing that should be able to happen at some point so

20:48Speaker 2

varun made a joke he did make a joke like what when video when video on varchaster or something

20:53Speaker 0

he did he yeah when video in frame and i'm like well you tell us we're ready it's funny

20:58Speaker 1

we're ready for video in frame

20:59Speaker 2

amazing video yeah so just make just watch that youtube video incredible so good

21:05Speaker 0
