There’s a real difference now in what you can get out of film and the rise of digital platforms.
Platforms are going to get bigger and bigger. Minecraft and Microsoft are just the tip of the iceberg. You’re going to see more and more action in this space. Not just from Microsoft’s Project Spark and Sony’s LittleBigPlanet.
When you have your star players that decide to use their platform, one, their platforms are bigger than everyone else’s, and two, they’re a force to be reckoned with because teams don’t want to lose that talent. They’re a force to be heard.

I kind of knew already what kind of company ROH is, and I know the platforms that they give their guys, and for me it was very important to have that kind of freedom. Obviously, I let ROH know that was the case.
I have seen everything possible covered in studs and grommets. Also, what I call angry shoes: those platforms with the multiple buckles and studs. I think the polished girl is back.
We closely track the systems Boeing builds for us, and they’re some very capable systems. So that’s been my focus. It is something that I look at every month. I look at the metrics for all major combat systems and our platforms, which Boeing builds many, and they’re successful platforms.
I think with Sky and BBC Three and Channel 4, there are some great television platforms, and the stand-up movement in this country is phenomenal. It’s like rock n’ roll here. Britain’s a funny place and there’s a lot of funny people coming out of there and a lot of people are finding mediums to express themselves.
I’ve always worked towards creating platforms and partners along the way.
We found the appetite for ‘Frontline’ has only grown as the digital landscape has exploded. The appetite for the reporting we do on our digital platforms to the short films we’re doing for our Facebook and YouTube channels. And we’re still producing these remarkable long-form films.
If we don’t challenge each other to use our platforms for better than our niches or what our quote-unquote brand is, what are we doing as influencers? If we can’t activate our audiences at the times it’s important or needed, then what do we have these platforms for?
With Liquid Robotics’ innovative technology and Boeing’s leading intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance solutions, we are helping our customers address maritime challenges in ways that make existing platforms smarter, missions safer, and operations more efficient.

We believe that we get so that we can give, and we’ve been so blessed in the platforms and opportunities that we’ve been given.

At the Big Bad Lab, we build participatory art and media platforms for causes, communities and organizations we care about.

While nations protect their physical borders, tech platforms leave digital borders wide open.
Grime, in particular, is not really about pirate radio and local raves on top of pubs anymore. There are things I miss about those times but as an up-and-coming MC, back then, I would have loved to have had SoundCloud and YouTube and all these platforms to promote my music.
Mobile devices have given us greater freedom and flexibility than ever before, while social platforms help us collaborate more effectively.

We’re talking about the national security of our country and modernizing their technology platforms and the foundation on which all those applications are going to be used to protect our country. You have to make sure these decisions are made truly objectively.

I can’t tell you the deluge of images that were sent to me through all the different social media platforms of families partying together… enjoying ‘Sharknado.’
The landscape of professional creation continues to get more complex. Organizations and platforms of all sorts are vying for a slice of the value created by the relationship between creators and their audiences.
Reading about myself on public platforms makes me uncomfortable. I don’t like it. I read other people’s interviews or articles, but when it comes to myself, if I see something about myself then I immediately turn over the page.
Forget politics and what their platforms were and everything, because you can take whoever you want to take, but the guy that I liked was Nixon… He was a smart man.
