In 2020, our final #TFOM day's theme was #Future, which focused especially on where we might be heading next when it came to the future of #meetings and #interaction 🗺️

For our #TFOM5YL Future post, we'd like to invite you to express interest in a still-forming plan for an event series in 2026 🙌

For the “Tomorrow” theme of #TFOM5YL, we’d like to highlight just a few of the awesome groups/platforms we've been fortunate enough to cross paths with over the last five years and link to their great work! 🌍 Check them out 🙌

Always enjoy our @futuremeetings.bsky.social adventures into #VR - especially the beautiful worlds of @walkaboutminigolf.bsky.social! By far the biggest advantage of #immersive tech that we've found in #TFOM is the ability to be *together* with others, whether for social or work!

Struggles with travel are unlikely to abate, whether from pandemics, fuel prices, or political unrest due to your country electing a narcissistic squash. This is why @futuremeetings.bsky.social keeps exploring practices and technologies like VR that could really connect us when it matters the most.
With everything happening in the US right now, how safe are scientific conferences for foreign participants in the US? I think this is something we have to discuss as a scientific community. I am hesitating to register for US meetings due to the unpredictable situation. Others who feel the same?

When using VR for scientific events with @futuremeetings.bsky.social, we've found a key component for success is #BeyondBeingThere: don't try to mirror the in-person experience but leverage the online space to show full-sized interactable models, or hold discussions on an asteroid.
It's really not even that it looks bad. It does look bad, but it's the utter failure of imagination on display. So you're going to hang out and talk with friends about getting dumped. Why not be the size of Godzilla when you do it? You could be traveling through a black hole. Come on

Last year was a really busy year for us, especially in the #astronomy world 🔭 Two major #TFOM activities involved partnering with @astrosocaus.bsky.social on #ASA2024 and @astronomy2024.bsky.social on #IAUGA2024, and we have just had our findings released publicly 🙌

My favourite group in the WHOLE WIDE WORLD are kicking off their Bluesky account properly, with trials and tribulations of experimenting with tech for successful online meetings, events and collabs. Now more than ever, we need to be together, even when we’re apart 🌏.
Greetings all! We (The Future of Meetings, #TFOM) are here on #Bluesky properly now, and we plan for this to be one of our main platforms going forward 👋 There's a fair bit of very recent TFOM news to share, so stay tuned for more posts imminently! 📬
