Collaborative #scicom & academic social media in action: @sswrorg.bsky.social has been brought into existence. #SSWR2026

How about ARNOVA? #ARNOVA2025 is this week in Indianapolis & there's lots of overlap between attendees & epistemic circles (+ few colleagues from @gcsocialwelfare.bsky.social).
Intrigued that ARNOVA & SSWR still have not created Bluesky accounts at this point in 2025. It integrated into @altmetric.com (unliked LinkedIn) & increasingly preferred by academic & scientific institutions & networks. No platform is perfect but... #AcademicSky #ARNOVA2025 #SSWR2026 #SSWR26 #SWTech
Bluesky now platform of choice for science community
It’s not just you. Survey says: “Twitter sucks now and all the cool kids are moving to Bluesky”…
