Monthly #14

February felt like a really good month, culminating in RightsCon 2025 being held in Taipei.

🇹🇼 RightCon 2025 in Taipei. The last week of February was filled with meeting a lot of great people and learning about some really interesting projects. RightsCon was a huge conference, and certainly was much bigger than I expected. It was made even better by having Michelle Thorn, my colleague at the Green Web Foundation, in town for the event. A couple of the projects that I learnt about through various conversations were Open Terms Archive, and a really interesting project that's trying to assess the resilience of Taiwan's internet in the event of multiple submarine cables failing.

There wasn't much else of note during February. I guess the month felt good because it was generally uneventful.

These are my current Start, stop, continue items for 2025.

• Tracking habits daily: 😔 Nope. Didn't do this for the whole month.
• Carrying a water bottle with me: 😄 Yes!
• Drinking a glass of water first thing in the morning: 😄 Yes, getting this done most days.
• Making a weekly "Links & Listens" list: 😄 Yes! Skipped a week during the month, but happy with the general consistency.
• Cooking more regularly: 😔 Nope.

• Reaching for sugary (fizzy) drinks: 😄 Yes, stuck with this during February.
• Waiting for things to be perfect before releasing them: 😄 Did well with this. Released the Green Web Tracker project during the month.

• Trying to get Touch into more local schools in Taiwan: 😄 Continuing conversations around this.
• Getting in a 20-30 minute walk during the day: 😄 Yes! I reckon at least 6 out of 7 days as week I'm getting this done.
