Five days into the course and I’m thinking that the next few days are critical for those who haven’t been connected to people yet. It’s hard to be new, and often an outreach of a hand isn’t seen in the jumble of a crowd. Now, I don’t really think you can ‘make’ community, but I use the word in the ‘maker’ sense. Making people feel welcome, including them in your work, these things are actions you have to take. Here is a suggestion for a thing that you can do to help include our outliers into the #rhizo14 fun.<\/p>\n

Week 1 moving to 2 twitter assignment<\/strong>
\nThe excellent Martin Hawksey has once again blown my mind. (not a great struggle you might argue, but nevermind). Below is Martin’s tagsexplorer uh… explorer. In it you will see all tweets hashtagged #rhizo14 and what connections\/replies they got. Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to find as many unconnected tweeters (five sounds like a nice number but YMMV) as you can and reply to them. <\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Make sure you’re logged into your twitter account<\/li>\n
  2. Click on lonely dot in Martin’s tag explorer<\/li>\n
  3. Reply to them<\/li>\n
  4. Tell us about it.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    It might easier to do this on the Martin’s actual site<\/a> rather than doing it here. Up to you.<\/p>\n

    note: I had to take out Martin’s tags explorer here for performance reasons.<\/p>\n

    Reporting<\/strong>
    \nPlease let us know how it goes. I’ve never asked folks to try and do this before, so if any unforeseen happenings happen, come back here and let us know about it!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
