Do the published archives of @aoir.bsky.social papers count as published proceedings, or am I still able to submit a paper presented at #AoIR2025 to a journal after?

You heard it here first (maybe): The CAT/Mobile doctoral consortium will officially be happening again at #ica26 in Cape Town! Are you dissertating? Consider applying for mentorship from top scholars in comm tech / mobile.

New study by @janadreston.bsky.social @anneo.bsky.social & @germanneubaum.bsky.social reveals how users understand algorithms. Key findings: 71% have a basic understanding of algorithms but only 33% can explain how they work; users see themselves as passive actors when interacting with algorithms 🧪

AEJMC's CTEC division is still largely operating over on Twitter / X and Facebook, without a presence here on Bluesky. As such, I'll post here about some CTEC happenings under #aejmc_ctec, if you want to follow it. #aejmc25

I've been doing very badly keeping up on Bluesky since the death of academic Twitter. I just deleted my catch-all home column and am following only relevant academic community hashtag columns in my deck. (I use @deck.blue, which is similar to the old Tweetdeck.)
