Twitter archives are a rich source of data for doing research into numerous things: Learning about social media and interaction networks, gaining insights into movement patterns based on geolocations and even doing sentiment analysis based on the tweets. And the best part of it: Unless you have a protected Twitter account this data is already public. So why not share it? The TwArχiv takes in your Twitter archive and generates interesting visualizations from your own tweets, including tweet volume over time and your interaction/movement patterns.

Kazarma is a bridge between two decentralized protocols: Matrix and ActivityPub. Kazarma allows exchange via private messages between Matrix users and users of an ActivityPub platform, such as Mastodon, PeerTube or Funkwhale. Public ActivityPub activities (eg toots threads) are also bridged into Matrix channels. The Kazarma bridge is easy to deploy, secure and easy to scale.

"When a rogue researcher last week released 70,000 OkCupid profiles, complete with usernames and sexual preferences, people were pissed. When Facebook researchers manipulated stories appearing in Newsfeeds for a mood contagion study in 2014, people were really pissed. OkCupid filed a copyright claim to take down the dataset; the journal that published Facebook's study issued an "expression of concern." Outrage has a way of shaping ethical boundaries. We learn from mistakes."
