My Life and Digital Musings
Hi - welcome to my Tumblr. I live in NYC and am currently an Associate at Time Warner's Investments Group. I decided to create a Tumblr to: a) better synthesize my digital media / investing thoughts and b) allow family and friends to keep up with me better. Feel free to reach out and contact me - I can be found at daniel (dot) gellert at timewarner.com. My other digital lives include Twitter (dangellert), Facebook and Linkedin.

Media Confusion
“J.P. Morgan Chase & Co. reported an 84% drop in third-quarter net income amid $3.6 billion in write-downs and $640 million in losses from last month’s acquisition of Washington Mutual, as the banking giant saw continued deterioration in its home-lending portfolio.” - WSJ
“JPMorgan Chase continued to weather the financial storm better than most rivals in the third quarter of the year, recording a small profit that beat analysts’ expectations.” - Financial Times
Um, so JPM had a great quarter or a terrible one?????

Maghound
Time Inc just released a Netflix for magazines. $4.95 gets you 3 titles per month, $7.95 for 5 titles, $9.95 for 7 titles and every title beyond that costs an extra $1 per month and you can switch titles anytime.
This is a really cool service and might make me a magazine subscriber again.

The Great Consumer Crash of 2009
Pretty scary article that I think is mostly right. Makes me want to crawl under a rock for the next 18 months.

iPhone review
I am going to dumb this down as much as possible. My iPhone review is 1 sentence long. The “i” part is unbelievable - this is the most innovative and well designed gadget I have ever come across; the “phone” part - really poor: horrible reception (worse than just the general AT&T network) and terrible battery life are my two biggest issues.
Overall though, I am happy. Such an amazing device.
