Episode notes

Eric is a product manager, data scientist and machine learning expert. He has an excellent newsletter which we did mention earlier but I'd highly recommend subscribing to it. You can reach out to us on the measure Slack group or on Twitter or on our LinkedIn page. If you've got questions comments or anything like that we'd love to hear from you. And of course no show is complete without a massive thank you to Josh Droherst our producer for everything he does to make this show happen.

Have you ever built a data-related "thing" — a dashboard, a data catalog, an experimentation platform, even — only to find that, rather than having the masses race to adopt it and use it on a daily basis, it gets an initial surge in usage… and then quietly dies? That's sorta' the topic of this episode. Except that's a pretty clunky and overly narrow summary. Partly, because it's a hard topic to summarize. But, data as a product and data products are the topic, and Eric Weber, the data scientist behind the From Data to Product newsletter, joined us for a discussion that we've been trying to make happen for months. It was worth the wait! For complete show notes, including links to items mentioned in this episode and a transcript of the show, visit the show page.
