A letter from Santa in response to a child’s Santa letter.
I ❤️ this from An Post (Irish Postal Service) - a letter back from Santa to our daughters, thanking them for their letters. Our 5-year-old started in Naíonáin Bheaga in September, and her first response when we were reading the letter - “Wait, Santa speaks Irish??!!”
Great to see the @olytico.bsky.social Social Wall on the big screens in the The Convention Centre Dublin showcasing the best reactions in the room at the 60th #BandFAwards.
Posts from LinkedIn, BlueSky and Instagram were most prominent, with X activity at live events continuing to decrease.
Love this campaign from the Irish Blood Service.
Got a call on Wednesday as stocks of O Neg had dropped below 2 days.
Made a blood donation in D’Olier Street and was given a gorgeous tree decoration to bring home.
Now, every year we unpack the decorations, I’ll be reminded to donate #GiveBlood
No surprise to see #GE24 in the top three hashtags on @bsky.app in the last 30 mins. Expect to see it in first place as the day progresses
More evidence of the role @bsky.app is playing for publishers - this time from @theguardian.com
Love this idea - how to keep cards with a sentimental value
This feels like the most commercially important stat I’ve seen about BlueSky to date. It’s not just driving traffic, it’s driving traffic that converts to paying subscribers for news organisations.
Great pack - thanks @markhamnolan.com
Thanks so much for being so typically generous in your reply. I didn’t get to cover all of this in the interview, but I doubt it will be the last time I’m discussing the topic so it’s really valuable to have this perspective and insight.
Solid advice - done!
👋
I’ll be chatting about the rapid growth of @bsky.app in Ireland (and globally) with Bobby Kerr on @newstalkfm.bsky.social this morning - what do you think businesses should know about the platform? Any advice/tips/suggestions I should share?
Thanks Keith! I’m chatting @bsky.app with Bobby Kerr on @newstalkfm.bsky.social this morning - very open to anything you think is important for businesses to know about it?
New to BlueSky? Interested in Ireland media, etc? @gavinsblog.bsky.social has put together a *really* helpful starter pack of accounts to follow
This was really helpful - thank you!
Cycling to work and stopped at traffic lights near Christchurch. Lollypop lady, whom I often chat with, looks down at my glove-less hands and gives out. "I know, I didn't realise it would be so cold" I explained. She takes a pair from her pocket - "use these and drop them back tomorrow". I ❤️Dublin.
