Here’s something we can all use.

I'm LOVING #MochaMousse 🤎, Pantone #ColorOfTheYear 2025! Can't wait to see the increased availability of medium-dark brown shoes, boots, & clothing. I've loved this hard-to-find color for many years! #EventProfs, how do you plan to incorporate the #Pantone #COTY2025?

@tessvis.bsky.social and I got to chatting about all of the things we carry in our bags when working an event... so we decided to record it!

Pantone has named an “evocative soft brown” its color of the year for 2025, continuing a tradition that has now run for more than a quarter of a century.

Let’s #EventProfs who haven’t, learn correct HashTags to be used by #ScreenReaders. Let’s be inclusive.

CapitalizeFirstLetterOfEachWord or it’s a word salad.

@jkatzaman.bsky.social Hiya Jim! Good seeing you here! Hope you've been well. I joined this last year before my Twitter chats faded away. 😢 Still getting on track here. 🤷🏽‍♀️

The algorithms that make up your feed are the other point of control over what you see on social media. We let you build and subscribe to custom feeds of the network — there are over 50,000! But you can also just use Discover and Following, the defaults we provide.

There’s a marketplace of algorithms. It’s open source — every line of code we write is public. Moderation is composable. Anyone can run any part of the system. And yet it looks and feels like it could be Twitter because we built a protocol Twitter could run on without drastic changes.

With all due respect to Jack for having the vision to invest in decentralized protocols, we’ve carried out the work in a way I don’t think he fully understands. Bluesky is structurally open in a way Twitter has never been, but the design of atproto allows it to feel familiar and easy to use.

As 2024 begins, remember:
• Take care of yourself first: mentally, physically, financially, spiritually, socially.
• Mend your cracks before reinforcing someone else's.
• You can't give if you're depleted.
• "NO" is a complete sentence. (Try it with a smile; you'll feel better!)
