I just saw a commercial that began ““Before Google the world was unsearchable…”
No. actually it was my job to search and find. Online and offline. Digital and paper. Laptops and archives. Public records.
Oh, what was that, a job?
Yes. It was a job before Google, before Yahoo, before Lycos, before all the search engines of yore. #ResearchLibrarian, #NewsLibrary #NewsResearch
'City' - Michael Heizer's land art project in the Nevada desert. Started in 1970, it was just completed in late 2022. One a half miles long by half a mile wide. Only 6 people a day can visit and walk the massive urban complex.

City 1970 - 2022

A reporter seeing something occur in public would try to get the names of the actors, or go without that personal identification. (Even eyewitness film wouldn't have the person's name attached; this was especially true in the years before facial recognition/crowdsourced ID.)

The act of asking people's names is--at least in many cases--eliciting some degree of consent by the subjects.

That step is missing in social media, and we haven't thought about it enough.

I'm loving this idea: major public broadcasters like the CBC (in Canada), BBC, NPR, etc would open Mastodon servers to enable content users to publish - a whole new social media engagement. It also allows them to escape their overreliance on Facebook and Twitter. Over time we users could rely on a common set of high standards and longevity. What do you think? https://theconversation.com/canadas-public-broadcaster-should-use-mastodon-to-provide-a-social-media-service-194116
Canada’s public broadcaster should use Mastodon to provide a social media service

With Twitter users considering a relocation to the decentralized social media network Mastodon, there’s an opportunity for the CBC to lead the way in re-imagining online futures for Canadians.

Having been to three World Cups as a spectator, this podcast series is getting me more and more excited for the games to come! https://www.npr.org/podcasts/510367/the-last-cup I’m not an Argentina fan, but Messi is a special player always worth watching. #futbol #soccer #worldcup #worldcup2022 #FIFAWorldCup #podcast #NPR
La última copa/The Last Cup

Lionel Messi es uno de los futbolistas más talentosos de la historia, pero tiene una deuda pendiente con su país. ¿Podrá ganar la Copa Mundial y regresar victorioso a Argentina, el lugar que dejó a sus trece años? En cinco episodios, la periodista Jasmine Garsd presenta un relato que trasciende lo deportivo. La Última Copa es tanto una biografía sonora de Messi como de millones de personas en Latinoamérica, quienes dejaron su país de origen con el sueño de volver.What's it like to be one of the world's biggest soccer stars and doubted by many in your home country? That's the question Lionel Messi faces in The Last Cup. Not only is this year's World Cup his last chance to bring home the coveted trophy – it's his last chance for vindication. Hosted by Argentine journalist Jasmine Garsd, The Last Cup is much more than a sports story. It's a tale of immigration and race, of capitalism and class, of belonging and identity. A story for anyone who's ever felt like an outsider in their own home.

Eddie Redmayne’s performance in “The Good Nurse” on Netflix is incredible. Highly recommended.
@Vashi Awesome! I need to spend more time with Davinci Resolve. Im impressed with how much they’ve made possible in the free version.
@nathangibbs Davinci Resolve scene detection function then I manually check each edit and pick the best frame for each shot. Takes about 6 hours for each film but worth it! Grfeat overview to gauge color palettes, rhythm of the edit and even shot sizes and choices. I call them #VashiFrames 👍
This probably describes me better than any intro
