Great idea -- I'm doing it already regarding connecting with new folks on Twitter for OKFN London stuff -- and I agree, Jonathan, that the more of us who watch that hashtag for different possibilities, the better! Lots of interesting talk going on!
On a side note, I've been RTing a lot of discussion related to #opendata and @okfn through the OKFN Twitter account and on my own account, and it's gotten a quite a fair bit of pick-up, which is great. Cool to see communities diverging and collaborating through different streams like that. Let me know if you want me to find anything specifically! :) Kat | Kat Braybrooke* *| Community Coordinator | Open Knowledge Foundation, London UK | Engage: http://okfn.org | Tweet: http://twitter.com/@kat_braybrooke On Tue, Jul 5, 2011 at 7:42 PM, Jonathan Gray <[email protected]>wrote: > Hi all, > > Just a quick note to say that I think that following and posting stuff > to #opendata on Twitter is something that we should all do more of, > and more systematically.
