Useful stuff!

Mass spec twitter might have found a home - has BlueSky finally taken off?

Do you miss the golden days of us sharing all the newest developments in proteomics along with really dumb gifs? 

Twitter was, in my humble opinion, THE best tool for finding the coolest new papers and quick opinions from people who read them.

Then something weird happened to it, and no one knows what. 

Completely unrelated -


We all ran away a while back and have been trying stuff, but get this - BlueSky has GIFs now. AND I'm getting pings every few minutes of some super cool scientist who just joined. 

Maybe there are better solutions than this one, but I can't find anything on Twitter. Half the time I can't even find the website. I swear it might be on a different address entirely. Now, I may not delete my final account quite yet. I've got this growing Excel sheet of companies that I will never ever buy from and companies actively spending money on Twitter is a great heads up for me to check them out and see if they should go on the list. 

I forget how bluesky works. My browser just remembered everything but I appear to be @proteomicsnews.bsky.social
