AOIR Working Group<https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSd1iDvbdFhR31RXGXY0XTv8NHbwIJIx7VAIMfOF43Qi4dthww/viewform>
This working group was born out of a request for mentorship with dealing with the computational/programmatic aspects of social media data. The core purpose of the group is peer-learning and peer-mentoring about the different methods, how to use them, and what the implications of each method may be. The discord channel can be found here: https://discord.gg/zgPS6r4

For those of you who have already sent me your details, please kindly use the form as it will ensure faster collection of your info so we can begin to structure the group's resources according to individual members' interests, wants and needs.
Thanks for your overwhelming enthusiasm!

Subject: [EXT] [Air-L] AoIR listserv and other updates
Dear AoIRists,
As you may be aware, we have had problems with the AoIR listserv for the past couple of months: those of you who were subscribed to the digest version of the AoIR mailing-list have not received any updates since 20 December 2018. I am pleased to say that our listserv provider now appears to have fixed these issues, and earlier today many of you will have received a (very) large digest email of all mailing-list posts since December.
If you are still subscribed to the digest version of the mailing-list, there's nothing more you need to do: normal service should now resume, and if you're reading this you've already received a further digest email. If you had switched to the non-digest version of the mailing-list in the meantime, to make sure you were still receiving posts, it is now safe to switch back to the digest. Simply go to https://na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Flistserv.aoir.org%2Flistinfo.cgi%2Fair-l-aoir.org&data=02%7C01%7CValarie.Bell%40unt.edu%7C4a6054c5ebff489293c608d697923fa0%7C70de199207c6480fa318a1afcba03983%7C0%7C0%7C636863051724101109&sdata=PWAAXgvZBJoHGpfHpzBVXWTP2MJ1HtYBZfj7D7xOo9I%3D&reserved=0, enter the email address you're using for the list into the 'Unsubscribe or edit options' box, and set digest mode to 'on' again.
On behalf of AoIR, my apologies for the disruption - unfortunately this was out of our hands.
SOME IMPORTANT UPDATES
Because of the listserv issues, you may have missed a number of important posts from AoIR about our upcoming events and other matters. So, here's a quick run-through with links to further information.
1. AoIR Flashpoint Symposium, Urbino (24 June 2019)
The deadline for submissions to the AoIR Flashpoint Symposium in Urbino, Italy, is _today_, so make sure you get your submissions in in time: https://na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Faoir.org%2Faoir2019symposia%2F&data=02%7C01%7CValarie.Bell%40unt.edu%7C4a6054c5ebff489293c608d697923fa0%7C70de199207c6480fa318a1afcba03983%7C0%7C0%7C636863051724111122&sdata=n%2Bm%2BN4h4AJ%2FlLcdRVo%2F8ac6cPpjAr4NLjjfqbFvsYAE%3D&reserved=0. Registration is also open already. We've created this annual symposia series to be able to address clearly defined emerging issues in Internet research in a small-scale, concentrated setting. Outcomes from the symposia will also be presented at the annual AoIR conference in October. Please note that AoIR symposia are one-day, single-track events for a relatively small group of participants - they accept only a limited number of submissions, and are considerably different from our annual conferences.
2. AoIR 2019 Conference, Brisbane (2-5 Oct. 2019)
The deadline for submissions to our annual AoIR conference in Brisbane, Australia, is 1 March, and submissions are now open: https://na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Faoir.org%2Faoir2019%2Faoir2019cfp%2F&data=02%7C01%7CValarie.Bell%40unt.edu%7C4a6054c5ebff489293c608d697923fa0%7C70de199207c6480fa318a1afcba03983%7C0%7C0%7C636863051724111122&sdata=pVNkZ5rjZAy5EbydOaz1tildlbR234322eFAJkF5ZWM%3D&reserved=0. On the AoIR Website, we have also published some advice about travelling to Brisbane (https://na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Faoir.org%2Faoir2019%2Ftraveling-to-brisbane%2F&data=02%7C01%7CValarie.Bell%40unt.edu%7C4a6054c5ebff489293c608d697923fa0%7C70de199207c6480fa318a1afcba03983%7C0%7C0%7C636863051724111122&sdata=zfJnfdg44qp8ZHNSyLvVbWqwpnAKLOgVEi4vakR35Kg%3D&reserved=0), and Australian visa requirements (https://na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Faoir.org%2Faoir2019%2Fvisainfoaoir2019%2F&data=02%7C01%7CValarie.Bell%40unt.edu%7C4a6054c5ebff489293c608d697923fa0%7C70de199207c6480fa318a1afcba03983%7C0%7C0%7C636863051724111122&sdata=xqO8mTpSfYcQKYoQGfXsL50lPXOqE0suPiuK13SlqMI%3D&reserved=0). We are also delighted to announce that, compared to previous years, we have been able to reduce registration fees by US$25 across all registration categories.
3. AoIR 2019 Satellite Events (30 Sep. to 1 Oct. 2019)
In addition to the AoIR 2019 conference itself, universities around Australia are organising a number of satellite events in the days before the conference. Information about the first three of these is now available from the AoIR site: https://na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Faoir.org%2Faoir2019%2Fsatelliteevents%2F&data=02%7C01%7CValarie.Bell%40unt.edu%7C4a6054c5ebff489293c608d697923fa0%7C70de199207c6480fa318a1afcba03983%7C0%7C0%7C636863051724111122&sdata=M7WGhIYmfl16Qex%2BEt7Ao%2F1kj36Z8QLTr3AwWIvxswI%3D&reserved=0. These events are organised independently - for more information, please contact the event organisers directly.
4. AoIR Elections
2019 is an election year for AoIR, and its new Executive will take over the coordination of the Association during our annual conference in October 2019. We will soon send more information about the upcoming elections to all AoIR members, so please check that your membership is current (https://na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fmembers.aoir.org%2F&data=02%7C01%7CValarie.Bell%40unt.edu%7C4a6054c5ebff489293c608d697923fa0%7C70de199207c6480fa318a1afcba03983%7C0%7C0%7C636863051724111122&sdata=6FoRmo0smkvuBOK%2BKrIBFRWxNr4N8UG16OsShVfZ%2BAM%3D&reserved=0) and keep an eye on your inbox for further updates. And of course, AoIR is an entirely volunteer-run organisation, so please consider running for one of the positions on the Executive. Nominations will open in mid-March.
My apologies again for the listserv disruptions; we hope that the issue is solved for good now.
