Hi! I'm the new Head of Communications @bsky.app.
I've been watching the open social web evolve over the past couple of years. Bluesky represents what I believe the future of the internet should look like: built on principles that put people first.
Fancy a bit of #morningpop!
Could I Love you Anymore is an erratic, crazy #psychedelic pop song that shows the journey of a woman discovering her man is not that into her and coming to the decision to move on...
It's really just a bit of fun

Hey ya'll! 👋🏽 What has helped you find your community on Bluesky?
I suddenly remembered a computer mouse used to have a rubber ball! You had to remove it to clean the muck off it when it got stuck. #TheMemories!
Hey @johannakerr.bsky.social BlueSky has this concept called Starter Packs. This one focuses on Australian music. You can open the pack and follow all or some of the people on it. #aussiemusic #musicsky #ozmusic go.bsky.app/m6qNhB
"We remember Jedda Starc, a lonely woman, she died, sleeping under papers in a park. Jedda Starc!
She was born in a time of war, abandoned behind an old church door. The weary nun who found her there..." Know Jedda's story.

A few quickfire questions with Virginia Trioli ahead of tomorrow night’s episode of Creative Types. Available to stream from Thursday at 8:30pm on ABC iview or watch on ABC TV.
Mature women's #homelessness is growing. It's so sad to think that anyone is sleeping rough let alone mothers & grandmothers! My song is intended to give a voice to these women. Let's give stories like Jedda's a better ending... #IRememeberJeddaStarc 🇦🇺🎵 🎵🇦🇺 #AustralianMusic

Thanks John, yes looking to build a community of musicians passionate about the craft of songwriting and equally as passionate for keeping real and human!!
Keep going! You're at the cutting edge. Opportunities will open up.
search + card type filters is a hidden gem in @semble.so recommend trying it out!
Yes, great metaphor.
Yep. I still save. Childhood trauma of realising I hadn't!!! 😁🤷♂️

Tell me... Have you weaned off Google products? What are your thoughts on a personal tech stack combining @proton.me ecosystem and @vivaldi.com browser in Australia? #techstack #privacy
Good on you Moshe; making the world appreciate truth, one beautiful photo at a time.
The other thing? The big providers make it so so hard to get rid of files easily and quickly for all of the obvious and nefarious reasons, right??? 🤷♂️😭
I've spent the weekend trying to purge my drive files and photos along with thousands of old emails. It creates such anxiety! Do you just accept that "storage is cheap"?
Hey BlueSky, I'm posting this again to throw it into the #AusMusic feed. Please enjoy this new track by Australian singer songwriter Johanna Kerr. This is #IRememberJeddaStarc 🇦🇺🎵 🎵🇦🇺 johannakerr.com/product/jedd...
