April 30 Tweeting

	A "tweeting" is a meeting using Twitter. It's similar to a "Twitter chat" but somewhat more structured, with an agenda and action items. The primary topic of the April 30 tweeting, proposed originally by @Shoq, @Karoli, @DavidBadash, was organizing progressive hashtags on Twitter. See the Pre-tweeting discussions below for an overview of the discussions before the tweeting.

Summary

Great chat!

look for opportunities to use #diversitywin/#diversityfail hashtags, and opportunites for other "win" hashtags.

here's the search for all tweets about #diversityfail OR #diversitywin
how to make this more systematic?

#p2 is a resource for diversity and empowerment, AND the progressive batchannel and umbrella tag

we will not be introducing an additional #p4p hashtag on Twitter at this point

next #p2 chat on May 14, including an issue focus as well as an organizing focus. planning page in progress here -- feedback welcome! a couple challenges:

is it possible to accomodate people who don't want to risk losing followers by engaging in chat?
is it possible to accomodate people whose accounts don't show up in Twitter search?
(from previous meeting) is it possible to accomodate people who have protected profiles?

Pre-tweeting discussions

The discussion prior to April 30 Tweeting got so voluminous that the initial summary spans a couple of pages. These are all important topics, and there's no way we can do them all justice during the tweeting, so these are also the basis for future conversations. When summarizing I've attempted to fairly excerpt everybody's positions while reducing duplication; in general I've preserved the order of the posts within each section although occasionally I've moved things around if I felt it didn't distort meaning and made it easier to follow. Apologies in advance for any mistakes or biases; please feel free to edit if I've mischaracterized your position. -- jon

#tcot is dead. Division between the originators of the tag. http://kithbridge.com/tcot/ He's calling for the shutdown of tcotreport and immediate abandonment of the #tcot tag. interesting.
