Good news
Scientists, academics, researchers: We’re excited to share that @altmetric.com is now tracking mentions of your research on Bluesky! 🧪
There are already many articles for which there is more attention on Bluesky than on other comparable micro-blogging sites, meaning the academic community and the general public have clearly adopted Bluesky as one of its core places to disseminate and discuss new research.

A Place of Joy.

Best way to share Google Slides in a webinar is:
1) Click down arrow next to Slideshow in Slides
2) Select Presenter view.
3) Share that view which opens a browser window.
Added benefits: switching to other tabs as needed during your presentation AND you can see you speaker notes!
Enjoy!
