Welcome back to #TheDailyThree, a weekday recap featuring 3 top stories in digital + a few thoughts. Today CNN loses, Casey Neistat wins, Twitter jumps on the "Copy Snapchat" bandwagon + Lyft makes me sad.

1. The news of the day: CNN shut down Casey Neistat’s Beme just barely over a year after buying it for $25m. While this seems like a failure, consider that CN can now focus both his attention + his wealth(!) to his very successful vlog. I feel it’s a win for him.

2. Twitter is allegedly working on a video sharing tool similar to Snapchat to minimize the # of steps it currently takes to post videos. It’s a smart move as the foundation of Twitter has always been about “real time” + video is def the medium of choice for that.

3. Why can’t ride sharing companies keep their hands clean? Lyft is being accused of spying on customers, much like Uber was during their “God View” scandal. This is disappointing as Lyft was in a unique position to gain some market share in the wake of Uber’s BS.

For more information on Beme’s shuttering, I suggest checking out Cofounder Matt Hackett's Medium blog.

Finally, for (maybe) a sneak peek @ what Twitter’s new function looks like, no other than @MattNavarra’s on it.
