Hi, I’m a reporter at Wired and I’m looking to chat with people who monitor and share air quality info like wildfire smoke and other data. Do you have a home monitoring setup and share the data on PurpleAir or elsewhere? If so, I’d love to talk with you! Feel free to reply here, or shoot me an email at [boone@wired.com](mailto:boone@wired.com). Hope everyone’s breathing easy out there! (Also if this kind of post isn’t allowed here, you can nuke it I understand) ---

This sounds like a great way to collect some information! Our community is a fantastic place to find individuals who deeply care about the air we breathe! ---

Yes I do in Rocky Point, NY. It’s on the grid plus I feed data into my own database with own designed webfrontend end for a nicer representation 🙂 See screenshot. I do a lot of outdoor exercise and like to have a precise local measurement to judge the dose of dirty air… ![1000020472](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/purpleair/original/2X/b/b3531ddeec802d7d755271aa52d16f58ca61a23e.jpeg)
