Suggestions for Twitter Best Practices

J Justin Public Seen by 8

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?

Thanks! @justin2 and Miles from Boston are also tweeting from @NatGat2014. I don't think Miles is on Loomio

I'm not participating on the titan pads as they are not inclusive or transparent in their design. It's the platform not the info, sorry.

I'm a bigger fan of pirate pads- no need for logins.

I'll take a look at the Titian Pads.. I've been doing a social media survey of NatGat trying to see how the public can find us.. Quite a mess. Everything directs you in dif directions..

Best tactic is to use social media like spokes on a wagon wheel that all draw eyes to main web asset.

In our case www.natgat2014.net

Here's what the basic foot print of NatGat looks like online:

recreating the wheel again, are we? looks like basically the same list of links i've been posting around. mess just got bigger again. and fyi, i'm not a web page person. i have never been to the www.natgat2014.net page What's a stirring committee? and do those people want to help with the already ongoing outreach working group? i see no need for 2 groups unless you can delineate tasks a little better.

oh, and the orig question (sorry got distracted again by all the OT stuffs) I have the PW but have never tweeted yet, b/c honestly every time i go look at the feed it seems well covered. i'm not a "touchy-feely retweet and respond to everything" kinda girl though. better left to those that find that kind of thing valuable.

dup work https://piratenpad.de/p/OccupyNatGat
http://natgat2014.titanpad.com/3

cannot emphasize enough:

YOU DO NOT NEED TO LOG-IN TO TITAN PAD
or even need to have an account to view or edit.

I like pirate better too for colors, but the titan accounts allow for keeping all docs under one umbrella - good for us and good for next year's planners. there is a system there - every wg has a main pad that they can house any number of docs on.

noone needs to remember every pad number or name - only the ones you personally work with.
for the bigger list, go to Table of Contents http://natgat2014.titanpad.com/46
there's even a copy with a name so folks don't need to remember the number for the TOC
http://natgat2014.titanpad.com/table-of-contents

I do agree with Justin that all media should direct folks back to the Hub (or website if/when we have it) where this info is:

Find us:
Contact: [email protected]
NATGAT2014 Hub
Twitter @NATGAT2014 #Natgat2014
ONG Rebelmouse
Occupy National Gathering Facebook Page

Plug into Planning and Organizing:
Attend our Planning and Working Group Calls
Join Working Group Mailing Lists
Volunteer/Offer an Activty
Loomio – ONG Organizing Group
ONG 2014 Group on Commons
NatGat3 Facebook Planning Group
(of course hotlinked there)

this is where schedule and other impt tie-it-all-together info will be posted in the future.

p.s. sorry to go off topic but really thought it important to clarify about titan pads
pp..s. there is even a TOC for NON-Titan docs
Table of Contents - NON-TITAN
http://natgat2014.titanpad.com/51,
so if we must use other platforms, please add there so folks can find them.

who's tweeting from here?
https://twitter.com/OccupyCaravan1

It would be great if description could be updated, something like:
@OccupyCaravan3
In 2012, the Caravan launched from 3 west coast cities to bring Occupy's voice to scores of towns across the USA...and was a wild success. Thank you all.
In 2014, we're headed to Sacramento CA!
(maybe use hub? http://interoccupy.net/natgat2014/)
