Dear Ralph and Cathy,

I love the social tools because they allow me to connect with and get to
know people in far flung areas who are closer to me in thought and spirit
than those who are nearby. For me, twitter, facebook, skype and blogging
are a means to an end, and that end os sharing open face to face
conversations

Michael:
So basically in twitter, the tagging convention is to add a hash mark in
front of a word. So if you make a tweet talking about Barack Obama and you
tag it with #obama, it will show up in a query on that tag (here for
instance http://twitter.com/search?q=%23obama&source=navbar&category=se
thanks, chris. that helps. if even a small group of tweeters start doing
this, it seems that it starts to establish or claim the tag for our use and

what I find interesting about the conversation around social networking and
twitter is the synchronicity with which these mediums leap to greater masses
of people.

Hi Chris and Michael,
more on hashtags. Yes, the hastag is part of the 140 characters. I did a
little search and I found that the hashtag #openspace is indeed mainly used
for Open Space Technology. So, could we use this? There might be a bit of
white noise but not too much.
By the way, if you wan
Yup...the tag counts, but Twwetdeck, the software I use to twitter has
several handy ways for shortening posts and links, so it's still usually
plenty of characters for a tweet.
