We 💙 links!
Starting this week, we've made it even easier for newsrooms and more to track how much traffic Bluesky is sending to their sites.
For those setting up analytics, Bluesky's referrer is go.bsky.app.

I want to create an incubator that funds atproto/bluesky experimental projects to the tune of $5k-$10k dev grants.
I am sorely tempted to call it “Chemtrails”, because it seeds the ATmosphere
Hit me with your best ideas!

If you’re in town around SXSW, check out Fediverse House, a 2-day event hosted by Flipboard and Surf. Amazing lineup of folks including Mike McCue, Molly White, Evan Prodromou, and Paul Frazee. I’ll also be giving a short presentation during the developer meetup about Micro.blog and the fediverse.

Well, I didn’t plan it, but word got out anyway, and people discovered that the fed.brid.gy Bluesky/fediverse bridge quietly went online a bit ago. Over 1200 accounts have already turned it on so far and bridged themselves one direction or the other. It’s great to see so much early interest!

My thoughts on a Bluesky PDS install from a few weeks ago.
It works! Very well. No downtime, running like a dream after two weeks. But boring as all get out. Here's why.

Just a few hours left in the Kickstarter for Tapestry. Looks like the Iconfactory can hit the next stretch goal with a last push. The project has a lot of potential. We need more experiments like this for the social web. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/iconfactory/project-tapestry
