Would love to hear about the tactics folks are using on the @NatGat2014 account.
By externalizing practices we can better amplify the work.
I am currently building Lists of Accounts to add value to the account by providing short lists & in hopes of attracting the attention of those placed on them.
What tactics do you use when you log onto the account?

let's just make a tumblr? funds should go into essential items like food, shelter & medical supplies..

@justin2, What is a tumblr? You mention funds, is that a fund-raising page? We have an AfGJ page linked on our Web site; the items you mention are
@jackie I was going to make the same Titan Pad comment that you did, but I seem to remember I HAVE seen some Titan pads saying that you must have an account; I know that they can be made either private or public. I wish there were an easier way to check on that then by going to each one individually.

@sallyg - there are a very few private pads and those DO need a pw - they are tech codes, and/or if a pad is being developed for a new group or purpose, it might stay private until developed. I think there are literally only 2, maybe 3 private pads out of 67 or so.
OR - someone creates a pad and forgets to click public (they are created private due to it being an account (natgat2014) in which case someone should give a heads up.

@justin2 Why tumblr? isn't that blog/pic site?
and yes, donations to the general fund, i.e.
https://org2.salsalabs.com/o/7315/donate_page/occupy-national-gathering
are for necessities such as food, sanitation, supplies, shelter.

The stand alone website looks like it is not going to happen. I think tumblr is a good idea, easy to set up and can collect the pictures and videos and crowdsourced graphics. We can use it to stream and collect the events and blog them out as they are happening. Here's how to videos 1. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pmM1aQrXYEU 2. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EjrZEqz3LiU

how does tumblr compare to rebelmouse? I know we have a page there.
Justin Thu 8 May 2014 3:54AM
Rebel Mouse is a Twitter & FB Marketing Promo Tool- it takes posts from various platforms & presents them in an easy to read format-
Great to build a network because it has automation where it tweets out top users via twitter often earning a RT or mention of the rebel mouse.
it's not a webpage to post original content to. used most often to present Twitter Content in a form non-Twitter users can engage with.
We should also set up a paper.li account as well- It's what Rebel Mouse is modeled after- Same idea but geared for a slightly more mature, conservative visual branding. Think Symphony (paper.li) VS Rock Opera Band with a DJ (Rebel Mouse).
Tumblr is a blog platform like WordPress but fer brands, artists, hipsters & 4Chan graduates.
We should use all three.
