Have been quiet here as not happy with the direction the owners have taken with the platform or their behaviour at times. Mostly posting work-related info on LinkedIn these days. Now that it’s open sign-up, giving Blue Sky a try. If you’re there, please connect. Same handle :-)

A reminder of the good in journalism, and why generative AI is no substitute for the human desire to tell a story. “…Above all he was a champion of the underdog, always cheerful but relentless in pursuit of a story he thought worth telling.” theguardian.com/environment/20…
