Swarming for each other's projects - latest community call summary

We got ourselves a full house with @elfPavlik, @Nadia, @Dorotea, @Auli, Spencer, @James Lewis, @Aden… from unMonastery, Copenhagen, Brussels, Romania, Lisbon, Paris… thanks all for joining in!

We touched on several topics, from a new hackerspace being built near Lisbon (@Dorotea has the juicy details), to the Linked Portable Profiles currently being built at unMonastery by team @elfPavlik and @James Lewis, which would make it easier for people to participate in various online spaces without experiencing Network Fatigue.

guys feel free to edit this wiki and add more details!

On the social media team front, we are on our way to make it easier for community members to catch up with latest projects updates and share the work of tweeting and facebook updating - stay tuned as we launch a call for mailing list countonme signup, courtesy of James Lewis.

In brief, you’ll have an opportunity to:

  1. get daily updates without needing to keep up with the many conversations happening on ER at the same time
  2. get a chance to queue in your own status updates to be tweeted in sync by the community
  3. contribute to the swarm social media team - smaller, distributed effort with bigger impact if we all take 2 mins a day to tweet each other's breakthroughs.

With #Futurespotters in Tbilisi approaching fast, @Aden our videographer for the event is in the process of building a strong offer for everyone in attendance. What is it? a package - Communication Kit for each participant to leave with which would help them further their own initiatives.

It would contain high quality photos, video interview, community improved written presentation of their project – pitchy and concise – with concrete call to help, also a mention in the follow up twitterstorm. stay tuned!

most valuable thing is to be able to capture contact with people who can enable me to do stuff in my projects.and make progress.
Specifically if I went away with understanding of my next steps, and specific person who can help me with my next steps.

People are motivated to tell the word about their own project. OI would love a place where I could publish that.
