See the colors of BlueSky, live!

This little visualization scans incoming posts and draws a stripe every time it finds a color word.

Watched the Q&A with Bluesky Chief Technical Officer @pfrazee.com and Chief Operating Officer @rose.bsky.team today.
My takeaway is that this platform is being run by real humans.

These birds have been a joy to watch.
For Peregrine Falcon watchers, a chick has fledged (just off camera) at 367 Collins Street, Melbourne, first thing this morning. In this clip (credit MLiz Grindstaff) you will get both camera views and in the second view, see a parent dive after the fledging. All looking good!

So how do you give credit when your research uses hundreds or thousands of data sources? The RDA Complex Citations Working Group has a recommendation for that #RDAPlenary

The RDA Complex Citation Working Group had completed the initial version of their recommendation for review during RDA Plenary 23.

Thread for those new to BlueSky. First of all, welcome. It feels like a safer space, doesn’t it? But also perhaps a bit disorienting initially? Here’s some tips for getting your bearings.

Still getting myself set up here.
In the mean time, here's a photo from near Mt Feathertop, Victoria, Australia.
