AI Tinkerers Toronto meetup on June 30. No slide decks, just live demos, real code, works in progress, and practical AI projects. #AITinkerers #AITinkerersToronto

On #Instagram, more content means more opportunities to be discovered. • Feed posts build awareness and reach • Publish consistently • Repurpose content across platforms • Focus on relevance over perfection • Stories nurture existing followers Says Gary V: www.linkedin.com/pulse/instag...

“If WordPress is robust enough to meet CERN’s security, accessibility, and scalability standards, it’s more than ready for enterprise use across industries—from education and healthcare to government and media.”

I sorted my browser bookmarks with the help of AI. This is what people in 2000 thought the future would be: intelligent machines helping you organize 1,705 links across 154 folders that you were emotionally unable to delete.

Google's AI Overviews answer queries without sending a click. One algorithm update can erase the rest. Tip: Your email list can't be taken away. Newsletter subscribers convert at 3–5x the rate of organic search visitors. Build the audience you own. #newsletters #seo #commsstrategy

Facebook is like cable TV: for the olds. Seen in an article about Gen Z breaking apart by gender. Politics, well-being, and digital life are pulling in opposite directions, says a researcher at a UK think tank. ukonward.com/reports/ball...

The main problem with trying to fix AI's willingness to dole out “problematic action statements” is that users tend to enjoy having their positions validated or confirmed by an LLM.

The law punishes those who steal the goose, but not those who steal the common. Seen at a UofT housing talk last Friday. Control of shared resources, land, knowledge, or tech, still shapes society as it did in England’s Enclosure Movement. #housingcommons @newhousingalt.bsky.social

Canada is not a melting pot but a tossed salad. Approach the value of difference with an open hand. Ask permission from others when sharing their wisdom. - Post discussion notes after visiting kiwi @thewebprincess, at @wordcampcanada #WCEH #WordCamp #cooperatition

If you use a link tree, your mobile webpage call-to-action tactics are likely broken or nonexistent. Our brain head spaces can't process a long list! Try a little harder on your website or link list. Don't be lazy. Emphasize with your people! #ux #homepages #cta #linktree #uxd #gopher2 #RuleofSeven

“Before 1914, the earth had belonged to all,” the Austrian-Jewish writer Stefan Zweig, a self-described citizen of the world, wrote in his memoir. “There were no permits, no visas...never saw passports." www.nytimes.com/2025/04/05/o...

Half of Canada's population will become neighbours with Alto. Toronto, Peterborough, Ottawa, Montréal, Laval, Trois-Rivières and Quebec City will become much closer. A 300 km/h high-speed rail is historic news and will strengthen intercity ties. www.theglobeandmail.com/politics/art...

Among other things, I decided to cancel my American spelling. #canada #tariffs

@handles.club Hello! Thanks for the matthew.posts.pics handle.

Holy moly, just found the Bluesky directory and its starter packs. I now follow a huge whack of fellow Torontonians and Canadians for news and cool stuff. Still searching for most of my niche technology peeps around the world. blueskydirectory.com/starter-pack...

Feels like I'm just posting to the void since I'm just getting started here, but why not. I write a weekly newsletter, and this week I write about how far away from reading and critical thinking we’ve come. It's lacking in our education, COVID learning loss, social media attention spans, all of it.

Hello. Tap, tap. Anyone here? Let’s get this started!
