Eric: I really admire like newsletters and I think people that are trying to at least take those ideas apart will Lawrence who used to be at meta and is now he's moved on has a newsletter called product life. He says it actually gives structure to thinking about product instead of just getting lost kind of like in generalities and hand-wavy statements. "It makes things tangible to a point where you can actually discuss them" -- Eric, as we wrap up our last call.

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.
