Digital Marketing for Small Business doesn't have to be hard. Strategic investments in a digital marketing platform give you returns that last for years.

I have a few Bsky codes for anyone attending #OLASC who wants one.

@FraserNicole @biancawylie Agreed, adding the value of empathy to humility would take us a long way.

@petermansbridge @bruceanderson @SXMCanadaTalks Great podcast! Very timely and relevant. You both seem to struggle with path forward. Path fwd may involve us being curious on how to build a healthier information ecosystem. Obama mentions info ecosystem in speech last year @Stanford. It’s important.

@mediamorphis Wonderful! Thank you for the citations. I have to do my homework to digest. Cheers!

[Stratford Public Library @SPLibrary]

In this free session, Stratford Public Library, @PerthCFDC, and @SPCFB will help demystify AI technologies for small businesses, revealing how tools like ChatGPT and Midjourney can strategically enhance your content creation and customer engagement.

@mediamorphis Been thinking about your perspective "That ship has sailed". I know it's hard to have evidence based conversation on Twitter, but can you provide evidence/link to support your perspective. My experience is different. I have tech design experience, so I'm not a normal user. Thx

Deceptive claims from this group about educational licensing is just shameful. Here’s the model licence used by @CRKN_RCDR, which covers hundreds of millions in payments. Those “subscription fees” permit teaching, course packs, handouts, and data mining.

The Artificial Intelligence and Libraries Bibliography includes over 125 selected English-language articles and books that are useful in understanding how libraries are exploring and adopting modern artificial intelligence (AI) technologies. #AI #Libraries https://t.co/133iPE21h6

@mediamorphis Agreed, media landscape definitely changed over last 2-3 decades, but social media is not news media. It's new. It's innovative. The internet is not telephone, cable/TV, or newspapers. It's new. It's innovative. Rewarding failure is like taxing competitive Japanese cars in 80s.

@mediamorphis It's 2023. Who needs a CTV App owned by Bell Media when I have a browser that takes me anywhere in the world powered by my own media consumption choices. #Pathetic #LessBigMediaConcentration #PersonalAgency

Supporting #smallbiz makes a difference! 💖
Did you know: 66¢ of every $1 you spend at a local business stays local vs. only 11¢ when you shop at a multinational 😱

Shopping small has a BIG impact on our communities! Retweet to show your support for #SmallBusinessEveryday.

@mediamorphis @CBC @CTV @TorontoStar @Meta The government and media lobbyists overplayed their hand. It's time for media innovation on the new information ecosystem, not more political games trying to protect old industry economic interests against a changing socio-techno complex adaptive system.

@BrettFrischmann @biancawylie @GKCWorkshop @profmadison @MrsMRS_PhD @socioanna @AngRaymond "community effort" Of course! I wish I had more characters to work with, lol. Thanks for adding important members of the Knowledge Commons community that I missed in original tweet.

[David Mackey @dbmackey]

@biancawylie Grand ambitious vision, nice! Ostrom’s ideas definitely relevant. Do you know about Knowledge Commons work by @BrettFrischmann? *Waves Hand* Interested in a chat with you if you have time. I'm searching for solutions, but problem space is non-trivial. https://t.co/hg0K8vtfcd

@biancawylie Agreed. Developing visionary policy for human behaviour is better than wasting energy on short sighted (playing-behind-the-puck) policy which only reacts to latest tech trend. Bonus points for policies which seek institutional innovation enabled by advances in tech
