It turns out the old adage “if you build it, they will come,â€
shouldn’t always apply to starting a business, “It should be ‘if they
come, you will build it,’†or at least that’s what entrepreneur
Alistair Croll would argue. The Solve for Interesting founder and *Lean
Analytics* author explained why this business model has it backwards during
a Q&A video shot at this year’s SXSW Interactive Festival. Learn more and

Wednesday, June 5, 2013 9AM PT, San Francisco
In this Strata Online
event<http://post.oreilly.com/rd/9z1zg3abr57cpal2m8mpol808jm363uin0tacn4cgag>,
we'll look at some of the ways the rise of the always-on world is feeding
the hungry engines of Big Data. From new approaches to interface design, to
the Internet of Everything, to the lifeline of a single SMS, our mobile
phones are fast becoming a prosthetic brain—and Big Data is its synapses.
