Chart of the Week

Brought to you by Zignal Labs, a realtime, cross media analytics platform (also a client of Scott Monty Strategies).

With SXSW taking place this weekend (SXSW Interactive began last Thursday) and President Obama's appearance there, it should be no surprise that his speech became a trending topic. On Sunday evening, the top stories were still focused on his remarks about privacy and security.



If you're at SXSW in Austin on Tuesday, you can join Zignal Labs for breakfast tacos and a tour of their Command Center. Tell them I sent you.




* Answer to the trivia question above: 

  • Lee Se-dol, a Go grandmaster and 18-time world champion, was defeated 3 games to 1 by AlphaGo, the artificial intelligence system created by Google's DeepMind division. Go Grandmaster would be a great rapper name.
