Rows 

My thanks to Rows for sponsoring last week at DF. Let’s face it, spreadsheets suck. The world runs on them, but the last time they got a major update was in 2006. That’s a year before the first iPhone was released.

That’s why Rows has reinvented spreadsheets. It is just like Google Sheets or Excel but built for modern teams. Rows offers 40+ integrations with business tools like Google Analytics, Twitter, Stripe, Salesforce, and public databases like Crunchbase or LinkedIn. You can even connect your custom API to build internal tools. All without add-ons, scripts, or code.

Rows also revolutionized how spreadsheets are shared. You can turn any spreadsheet into an interactive dashboard, automated report, or collaborative financial model that work and look great on any device.

Thousands of people have already upgraded their spreadsheets to Rows. See the best of what the community of users is building and get started for free today.

‘Apple in 2021: The Six Colors Report Card’ 

Jason Snell’s annual Apple Report Card is one of my favorite traditions of our current Apple pundit landscape. This year’s did not disappoint. I think collectively it is an almost astoundingly accurate snapshot of where Apple is doing well and where it’s not. If I had a podcast, I’d have Snell on my next episode to talk about it.
