I’ve spent the last few days pondering my experience at SaaStr Annual. I often find I learn a lot from attempting to coh…
I started writing a simple list of my thoughts about the SaaStr Annual conference and ended up writing quite a bit about my experience running a SaaS business thus far.

A few screenshots from our new Union Metrics for Instagram analytics. Want to learn more? Take a look at our website or join us for a webinar this afternoon.
Check out our new, beautiful Instagram analytics!
This is the culmination of a lot of hard work by an amazing team.
So glad we can finally show this off along with our Social Suite which brings our analytics for Twitter, Tumblr and Instagram together in one place.
There's a lot more to come across all three platforms.
Interstellar - Trailer
The first trailer for Christopher Nolan’s next movie, Interstellar. Yes, please.
"man i miss sherlock so much"
I wish someone would photoshop in Lou Ferrigno.
Slides from my talk at KEEN about the math, science and metrics that underly social engagement. Includes science dog, a quadrant chart, Bayes, Bangerz and #doge. Should cover most of the bases.
Slides from a talk I gave at Austin on Rails about building a service oriented architecture. Check it out if you're interested in that sort of thing.
Spoiler alert: includes lots of being dumb and failing. Also Dazed and Confused-era Matthew McConaughey.
Pretty solid brunch work this weekend.
We’re about to open up our free Union Metrics for Tumblr analytics! Sign up for the waiting list to be the first to try them. We’re going to be talking more about some of the features included in our new individual blog analytics over the next few weeks.
Up first, our reblog tree! Have you seen our reblog tree?
For any post on Tumblr, we can map out exactly how the post spread through Tumblr via reblogs. This includes any direct reblogs of your original post, as well as reblogs of those reblogs, and even reblogs of reblogs of reblogs. We’ve seen posts that are still getting reblogs more than 110 degrees removed from the original post!
Why is this important? Well, you can see who reblogs your posts, where they find your content, and who is responsible for amplifying your posts the most. Want to find your biggest fans and advocates? Identify influencers in your network? See how content moves through Tumblr? Find new blogs to follow? Check your reblog tree!
ALL OF THE REBLOGS!
Seriously though, I can't wait for more people to get to use our reblog trees.
Moving in to the new office
Woohoo!
Good news, everyone! We’ve been hard at work keeping a promise we made when we first launched Union Metrics for Tumblr.
We’ll soon be unveiling free Tumblr analytics - engagement and content metrics for your personal Tumblr.
Want in? Sign up for the waiting list.
Thank you! Any chance Union Metrics could extend free Tumblr analytics to nonprofits as well?
The new free account level will let you get analytics for any single blog you own. While we're calling it "personal", we'll be thrilled if a nonprofit (or a small business) with a single blog wants to use it.
Also, we'll have some more announcements in the coming weeks that will, I think, be very interesting for professional bloggers, nonprofits and small businesses. Stay tuned.
Tumblr Rules of Engagement [for brands] by Kenyatta Cheese: Be responsible. Listen to people. Don’t be an ass. — from a May 9, 2013 Union Metrics online seminar
Kenyatta, as always, speaks the truth. Nice graphic too.
Perhaps you’ve heard the news that Yahoo! has bought Tumblr. Rumors about the deal started swirling last week, on the night of Thursday, 5/16, and the deal was officially announced on Monday, 5/20.
Just 300 posts were shared on Tumblr about the rumor on Thursday. On Friday it was up to 1,216 posts, and by Sunday there were more 14,300 posts generating 757k reblogs and 420k likes! Over the past few days, more than 29,600 posts about Tumblr + Yahoo! were reblogged 2.5 million times by more than 1 million people.
The top post about the news is from ruinedchildhood and has generated 88,500 total notes, including more than 55,600 reblogs! Check out that reblog tree; more than 29,400 reblogs are more than 9 degrees removed from the original post.
And Yahoo! CEO Marissa Mayer’s announcement about the deal has received 5,578 reblogs and 4,387 notes so far (and that’s still climbing).
It’s been a big few days for Yahoo! and Tumblr. We’re tracking the whole Tumblr conversation about the news, so we’ll keep you posted on any interesting stats as things progress.
Sweet, sweet reblog action.
Miss our webinar on Tumblr engagement? No worries! We’ve got it here.
In this recording, Kenyatta Cheese, Co-Founder of Everybody at Once, and Jenn Deering Davis, Co-Founder of Union Metrics, talk about Tumblr, brands and how (and why) to foster engagement on the platform. They also discuss what goes into a successful Tumblr campaign, how to measure engagement, improve your content— and more.
How to not be a sucky brand on Tumblr, an audiobook by me and Jenn Deering Davis.
Kenyatta is way better at titles than we are.
I’m delighted to announce that we’ve reached an agreement to acquire Tumblr!
We promise not to screw it up. Tumblr is incredibly special and has a great thing going. We will operate Tumblr independently. David Karp will remain CEO. The product roadmap, their team, their wit and irreverence will all remain the same as will their mission to empower creators to make their best work and get it in front of the audience they deserve. Yahoo! will help Tumblr get even better, faster.
Very well done all around. Congratulations to the entire Tumblr team.

Damn.
“Startups are run by people who do what’s necessary at the time it’s needed. A lot of time that’s unglamorous work. A lot of times that’s not heroic work. Is that heroic? Is that standing on a stage in a black turtleneck, in front of 20,000 people talking about the future of phones? No. But that’s how companies are built. That person who did that for the iPhone launch at Apple, we don’t know who he is. All we know is that Steve Jobs came up with the iPhone. But he didn’t ship it. The person who bought the donuts did.”
