They used to have a free tier but went fully paid a year or two ago. I’ve met some interesting people through it. They have a free newsletter and a pretty good podcast called Content, Briefly. #FreelanceChat
in #FreelanceChat we had recent threads about stationery, pens, sealing wax, calligraphy, and vintage typewriters. #ScriptChat
I saw the "generate your digital doplinger," where you gave AI a bunch of info about you and created your image. I was surprised how many jumped on that. Social engineering is crazy to watch in real time.

A3: No...instead I will give it a summary. So, it starts (and ends) with me, but I only use it for outlines or to have it edit what I've already written. Having it create something for you is always a bad idea, imho.
#FreelanceChat
I'm shocked by the number of "experts" who suggest you throw your internal data or IP into ChatGPT.
#FreelanceChat
I'm neck deep in work, so I set a time so I'd remember to take a #FreelanceChat break!
Thanks for the explanation. I never would have guessed that. I simply do not retain acronyms. I thought it was like Association of Freelance something.

I've had issues with them splitting but they are meaty. Great for making sauces. I had a couple that were bigger than this.
#FreelanceChat
Last I grew so many things that I was overwhelmed. I didn't finish cleaning everything up until mid-November. I was completely burnt out, and two months later it all started again. I don't think I ever got past it because I haven't really been into it this year, like years past.
#FreelanceChat
So very true! We HAVE to juggle all the things, and weave in some self-care too! I'm a writer and a pumpkin farmer, dog mom, gal-who-floats-in-a-tube-on-a-lake, chaser of 5 yr old twins (not mine) and so much more!
#FreelanceChat
It's only lists journalists. It's basically a database for PR people to find journalists to pitch story ideas.

I'm Shane from the Boise, Idaho area where I do PR and marketing.

This chat is wonderful and helped me get my freelance business off the ground four years ago (as #FreelanceChat on Twitter, not there anymore).
Advice, special guests, stories, and good humour — definitely worth attending!
#FreelanceFriends
@stebbinsmatt.bsky.social Are you worried that developers are going to ruin McCall? When I saw that developers had plans for the area, it made me scared for those who live there.
#FreelanceChat
We talk about how to find compelling stories in B2B sectors like construction, engineering, and manufacturing, and why these industries offer a sea of potential riches for marketers willing to dig that bit deeper.
I met Michelle online through the #FreelanceChat community that grew on Twitter.
The latest episode of my podcast went live this morning and it's one I've repurposed from my guest appearance on
@prisus.bsky.social Michelle Garrett's PR Explored show on LinkedIn.
We talked all things marketing and PR for so-called "boring" industries.

To me, community is a group of chosen folk who either share a common interest, location or circle of people. At it's best, community has looked like groups such as #freelanceChat and now #FreelanceFriends. People who choose to be a part of your journey for a while.
A3: The most helpful resource I've found is chatting and learning 1:1 with other freelancers.
Still friends with, and learning from, peeps from the old #FreelanceChat days at The Other Place.
Hopefully that happens here too, with #FreelanceFriends!
Angela, I just inspected your code. I think it has to do with the attributes of the container you're re writing/pasting into. Look at that, as it will take precedent over your other formatting. Basically, that means each headed section is meant to be in its own box. #FreelanceChat
I used to also use Salesforce for a non-profit I assisted.
Maybe a free, slim version? It was good "back in the day"....
#FreelanceChat
I enjoyed using my client's salesforce account. Nice interface and my brain worked the way it was set up. I didn't always have to stop and think, now what am I trying to do here? #FreelanceChat
Hmmmmm, Natasha Lyonne?
#FreelanceChat
AI hallucination is a hot topic in SABR right now, it's hilariously bad at some answers.
The biggest problem I see is you may not be able to tell where the answer came from so you do almost as much leg work to check it out.
#FreelanceChat
Sounds good to me!
Thanks for doing this heavy lifting behind the scenes!
And many thanks to everyone who has contributed to the planning and execution of this new chat!
#FreelanceChat
Right! I have so many thoughts about the newspaper industry. The changes make me sad. But I've landed in a good place and have clients who appreciate my reporting skills.
#FreelanceChat
Sort of!! :) It's never a dull day at my desk!
#FreelanceChat
And @sandyhubbard.bsky.social - any help/guidance you can give is greatly appreciated. I'm really hoping to see more people bravely step up and host a week. Love hearing more about and from these great people.
#FreelanceChat becomes #FreelanceFriends
Thank you, @strotebook.bsky.social.
This wouldn't have happened without you!
Cheers!!!

We'd LOVE to have you. Let me know if you have a week in mind. Gonna see if this takes before we build the simple shared space. No sense to build it if it's not going to be used.

I feel like it's the day in school with a new regular teacher after you've had a sub for weeks and weeks. Lots of convos and connections going on. Loved it!
My best to Mr. Archie, please and thank you!
