The @Orioles @Nationals game last night was more suspenseful but the @BlueJays @Nationals game on Sunday was a huge treat for this Torontonian. I need to pace myself with these $5/$9 DC resident tickets.
A first on @wmata: someone brought his own camping chair and sat in that instead of one of the many open seats.
Two years ago I spoke with @MandT_Bank about its tilt toward 1st party data and the 'death of the cookie.' It took longer than expected for the 3rd party cookie to disappear, but this year it's happening -- and that's not a bad thing for banks. americanbanker.com/news/is-t…

"There is no person who doesn't know someone who was killed or knows someone who knows someone. It's two degrees of separation, and we're still not over that." I deeply appreciate this story by @johnhadams for @AmerBanker. americanbanker.com/payments/…
Our @AmerBanker tech family is growing😊
Personal news: I'm happy to announce that I'll be shifting my beat to cover the tech industry for @AmerBanker!
I've loved covering the credit union industry over the last 2.5 years and now for something new. Credit unions are still on my radar, so long as there's tech involved!
