Listen! #Knowledge coming from #museums:
"#ActivityPub is plumbing. It is plumbing built on top of the web, which coordinates the ability for independently operated services, for example a collection of federated social media services, to exchange messages with each other in a decentralized manner.
So #SFOMuseum has built its own ActivityPub server for publishing #socialmedia style messages.
In doing so, it means that we can(& have)created social media accounts for 60,000 objects in our collection including this roll of #HelloKitty toilet paper from #EvaAirlines."

Using a new #SocialMedia platform comes with lots of learning about social norms, affordances... so we will be learning by doing and experimenting here.

Bear with us in this journey!

Pet peeve about the #RedNote thing (besides the fact it's not really it's name)

For goodness sakes 小红书’s name is not in reference to Mao's little red book. Just because Westerners call that "little red book", doesnt mean the Chinese called it that. It's not a direct translation la. (For one, calling anything 小 “small” diminishes it's importance so why would the Chinese do that wei? In Chinese Mao's book is called 红宝书 (Hong Bao Shu) "The Red Treasure Book" or formally, 《毛主席语录》 (Mao Zhuxi Yulu) Quotations from Chairman Mao.

Chinese people just like to label everything red, ok? It's our most auspicious colour. It's lucky. Our hong paos are red. Our wedding dresses are red. Red is everywhere during Chinese New Year. This had been like this for thousands of years before the CPC. Alrighty?

Nah you guys won't believe me anyway why do I bother typing this 😆
