Jeff JarvisAt 1p today, I'm giving a class in Mastodon to faculty and students. It'll be fun. I'll do the practical stuff first -- how to use Mastodon -- but then I hope I'll have time to explore the architecture of the Fediverse and its implications for journalism and media and then the cultural implications for #BlackTwitter and other communities in the Other Place. We'll record it and post it.

@jeffjarvis Looking forward to it!
Conley King@jeffjarvis Sounds good!
Mikael Suomela@jeffjarvis just remember that not all users are in the US. Users are global and probably the majority are outside of USA - US specific things might not be super high on developers’ agenda (although I guess you are more familiar with the developers than I am).
Chris Lombardi@jeffjarvis PLEASE! A YouTube link?
Winter Trabex@jeffjarvis i'm interested in this, if you can post a link later
Arjay Ruggles@jeffjarvis I’m excited to see this!

Robb MontgomeryHmm. I would have my grad students document and track the advertisers on #Birdsite who are now clearly funding harmful speech like antisemitism. And then … dive into the datasets and visualize it to map out their connections to the other media audiences they also support. My hunch is that this investigative work needs to start now through diligent documentation and records preservation.
Erin Brown@jeffjarvis I put together a talk about this for my online journalism class before Thanksgiving and it was well received. 🙂

✍️@jeffjarvis I do not miss Twitter anymore since signing up for Mastodon and breaking the associated addiction, but what I do miss is the journalism I found there. I hope you get them to break the social media sickness and get them to participate on Mastodon. I’m sure it’ll be important for their careers, as Twitter was for mine when I started.
R.D. Wojcik@jeffjarvis thank you!
Steph@jeffjarvis Great! Only the beginning!
Wizard Bear (💉x8 + 😷)@jeffjarvis Looking forward to seeing the recording. I'd like to link to it as well. I'm getting a lot of inquiries from people on the "bird app" for more info on Mastodon. TY!!
WTF@jeffjarvis Black Twitter is as strong as ever and from what I understand they don’t care if a billionaire purchased it. This should be interesting.
Cathie English, Ph.D.@jeffjarvis Wish I could be in the class although I am making strides here.
kellihazel@jeffjarvis Yes, please!! I’d love to listen and learn!!
Meryl Krieger@jeffjarvis I'd really like to see this! I teach on digital culture, and I know my students would get a lot out of what you're describing.
Willys View Podcast@jeffjarvis thank you i be happy to repost on my media & my podcast for you Jeff - Open invite to be my guest anytime!
