AoIR drop! Blogged for CAMRI #universityofwestminster about attending @AoIR conference for the first time: got inspired by innovative studies into Meta advertising and period apps; felt welcomed into the digital media community; went on a bumper car. Heart and head was very happy throughout: https://camri.ac.uk/blog/articles/aoir-drop-my-first-time-attending-association-of-internet-researchers-2024-at-the-25th-anniversary-conference/

"Overall, it’s incredibly heartening to join an early researcher community who share the same concerns about technology’s multiple and widespread effects on society, the details of which can become heavy, despairing and disempowering."

ICYMI my blog about turning early career researcher challenges into successes thanks to the @digitalgoodnet summer school is now up on University of Westminster's CAMRI site and in their newsletter ✨

On the eve of #AoIR2024, I wrote a thoughtful piece on how attending the first
@digitalgoodnet summer school helped me to become more confident talking about my PhD work in persuasive design features.

Happily repping CAMRI at
University of Westminster as always, please check out the blog here: https://digitalgood.net/learning-and-growing-following-the-digital-good-network-summer-school-by-debbie-ball/

Bit behind with my #AoIR2024 posts...but take that as a good sign that I've had a busy, enjoyable and interesting @AoIR conference.

The Place of a Child on Platforms and the Data and Tracking panels were fascinating this morning. Big ups to @tamaleaver, @taylorannabell, @TomDivon and @wishcrys for the former and @antmandan for the latter 👏 👏 👏

Yesterday at #AOIR2024 was great & gave my brain a very good workout.

I enjoyed Brady Robards presentation a lot about young people’s attitudes to unhealthy Instagram advertising. Then the excellent States, Platforms & AI w Thomas Poell, Lina Dencik, @stinelomborg & @markandrejevic
