Anyone interested in Twitter?
« on: April 03, 2010, 09:47:31 PM »
I was thinking about making UNDCyclingClub or UNDCyclingTeam or just UNDcycling on Twitter to let people know what's up--but is anyone else interested in that?  Would you follow such a feed of information about the club and/or the team's exploits?  Maybe know when the rides are going out?  It may take some doing to make it accessible by everyone in the club (without abuse), but I think it's possible.

I wouldn't mind the club having a Twitter account.  However, I don't think it would be wise to make it accessible to everyone.  Maybe just have a "VP of Twitter" or something.  FWIW, I actually have a Twitter account; "siouxcyclist".  I don't use it much currently, but given a reason, I suppose I could post updates more often...you know?

I'm okay with the "VP of Twitter" or "VP of Social Media" or something like that.  Ideally this person would be a cross between Secretary (in that they let people know what's going on) and Vice President (which in other groups is traditionally in charge of recruitment).

Did anyone else hear Hollywood volunteer for this job?

I did!
The minimum number of bikes one should own is three.  The correct number is n+1, where n is the number of bikes currently owned.  This equation may also be re-written as s-1, where s is the number of bikes owned that would result in separation from your partner.

Okay, I set up a Twitter account: http://twitter.com/undcycling

Posts from the board will go out to Twitter (until this becomes a problem), and I'll be posting up rides and such.  Maybe we can communicate with other people and get them to join the club, too?

Hmm interesting. How does the board tweet then? Like every  post someone makes gets tweeted? Or does it just tweet certain things or what?
