It seems obvious that we should prioritize addressing misinformation that is more harmful. But what makes something more likely to be harmful? Can we can reason about it before the harm has occurred?
📣 In an upcoming #CSCW2024 paper, we present a taxonomy of Misinformation as a Harm ➡️
What unifies, and what distinguishes, social media designs? Are all the Twitter spinoffs actually meaningfully different designs from each other? Form-From is a design space from @axz, myself, @karger, and Mark Ackerman that will appear at #cscw2024https://arxiv.org/abs/2402.05388
New year, new people behind this account! We're Sane Gaytán, @carla and James Howison, and today we're here to remind you that the next #CSCW2024 deadline is in less than two weeks, on January 16. You can see more details about the submission process and review timeline on the website: https://cscw.acm.org/2024/index.php/submit-papers/
#CSCW2023 is now concluded! The communications team would like to acknowledge that we were unable to post to multiple platforms during the conference due to the lack of a built-in scheduling tool on this platform. We tried one external scheduling tool that did not work, and we were too hesitant to provide access to the account without more time to understand trustworthy options. Only one Comms Chair was available to attend the conference in-person, so we needed to prioritize the bird site. 1/2
Please know that I (@estellesmith) felt uncomfortable with this, but prior norms + a larger active contingent on the bird site made it seem necessary. Please reach out to the #CSCW2024 communications team (listed here: https://cscw.acm.org/2024/index.php/organizing-committee/) if you’d like to provide recommendations for configuring a trustworthy scheduling tool for Mastodon in the future. We hope you had an amazing time at CSCW if you attended! And with that, this year’s team is signing off! 🙂👋
Please sign up to be an Associate Chair for #CSCW2024 to help our community continue our tradition of excellence in research. See the form linked below, due this Friday (July 14).
