My good friend and co-worker @becomvocal was on @BobWP’s “Doo The Woo” podcast recently with @SirJonathan. I asked Bob about highlights & he said “I don’t know there were too many gems to keep track of!” Here are some of my favorite quotes.

Thread 1/6

. @becomevocal: I am an engineer & hacker-at-heart. I just happen to play in product strategy every day. I like to look at ecosystems because they're building a business. It all comes down to is the opportunities we create. That's what excites me. 2/6
. @sirjonathan: “From your perspective, having been in this world for a long time, what are some of the opportunities that you see for the world of SaaS? How would you guide SaaS folks listening to think about WordPress?” 3/6
. @becomevocal: We learned early on from many smart, passionate people to look at the WordPress way. Look at the community & people first. What are the motivators? There are people that've been in the community for 15yrs & they don't all code. They love the community. 4/6
. @becomevocal: The answer is to make it all about the human element. Make sure when companies come into the #WordPress community they aren't just trying to extract value. My whole career is based on what I can learn from great open-source platforms and the open web. 5/6
