Hi all,
We've had @wikimediatech accounts on twitter identica for some time now:

* https://twitter.com/#!/wikimediatech
that basically broadcast every single action that is logged to the
server admin log:

I use it to have an up-to-moment idea of status.

As someone who uses social media frequently i'd love to see us use our
resources more effectively. I've found it really helpful to use twitter for
our mobile site (http://twitter.com/#!/WikimediaMobile) and i've been
growing that community steadily through outreach, hackathons, etc.

I think I either set those up or encouraged them to be set up a couple
years ago.
Most likely we would be better off with human updates in there, but we may
need some designated tweeters to make sure it happens reliably when there
are issues to report, new features to mention, or upcoming stuff

I agree it would be neat to be able to use twitter/identica for actual

Hi,
I use it (since two days - after I found this account), because it's the
fastest way to the SAL updates for me.
But I would also use an account like @wikimediatechSAL - so I think it would be
fine if you would use @wikimediatech for communications - as long as you set up
a new twitter

Do we *have* to rename the feeds?
We rename *everything*. I'm unsure why we can't just create a different
account for people, rather than subvert the existing one.
WikimediaTechNews, maybe. I don't know.

There's only 78 followers. Most of them are staff. That's not a lot of
people to leverage, so I'm not sure that's a valid point.
Why not wmftech ?

Now that I know it's there, I'll certainly be reading it; thanks for the

Not silly at all. As a matter of fact, while you were writing that, I
was registering @wikitechlog on both services, which I think is a
better alternative for automated notifications.
What you said. :-)

First things first, I read the Twitter updates on the @wikimediatech channel.
But, I'm for the idea of moving the logging to a separate account.
Now, as to the access idea, I know Twitter has an API that we might be able to
utilize ( https://dev.twitter.com/ ). I don't know how easy it would
