That pun though. #AoIR2026 #AoIR2027

Can. Not. Wait. Can we go straight away ? #AoIR2026 #AoIR2027 🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹

And the theme: INTERNET REMAINS. ✊

OK, so for anyone reading at home, my conference blog for this #AoIR2026 has run to just under 16,000 words. 🫩 Really great presentations this year, and of course any misrepresentations of the work are mine…

Good GODS, we ground out a manky 1:1 draw at home against St. Pauli. That would never have happened under Christian Titz, hey … waaaitaminute. 🧐 #H96STP

Interesting thematic stats this year. #AoIR2026

As is tradition, I’m dual-screening the Hannover 96 match during the #AoIR2026 AGM… #H96STP

A fabulous session on journalism and fact-checking to close #AoIR2026 – liveblog here: https://snurb.info/taxonomy/term/246.

Have to say I’m really impressed by the quality of research I’ve seen this year. 👏
(Almost makes up for our similarly excellent panel not being accepted this time around… ☹️)

That was a really useful conversation at our #AoIR2026 Meta Content Library roundtable – many thanks to my co-conspirators Jo Lukito and @fabiogiglietto, and also to Yair Rubinstein from Meta for answering many curly questions. If you’d like to join our independent community of practice, ping me !

👋 OK #AoIR2026, all the cool kids are going to be at our roundtable talking about how to do actually meaningful work with the Meta Content Library in Regency D2 this morning, so if you’re MCL-curious (or perhaps already MCL-frustrated), you know what to do. ✊

Wow, she didn’t even make it to half a Scaramucci. ⌛️

Eeep – a very full and overlength panel on the Fediverse to end the day at #AoIR2026. Liveblog here, and that’s a wrap for today… https://snurb.info/taxonomy/term/246

There were two panels on polarisation scheduled in the same timeslot at #AoIR2026 this afternoon (🫤), so I went to the one that didn’t feature my colleagues and friends presenting work I already know (sorry team 😳). The other one turned out to be great too. Liveblog: https://snurb.info/taxonomy/term/246

Really confronting but important #AoIR2026 panel on social media responses to current conflicts around femicide, Ukraine, Iran, and Gaza, involving several of my @qutdmrc colleagues. Liveblog here: https://snurb.info/taxonomy/term/246
