Hi, TL;DR: I just set up a Google+ group for SMW at http://gplus.to/semanticmw , so come and chime in!
== Longer version == After spending countless hours on Google+, I have realized how useful their new group feature is, for sharing/finding interesting stuff happening around different technologies. It's nice handling of previews of movies, images, webpages etc makes it so much easier to spot interesting stuff. IMO it works FAR better than e.g. twitter, for this. E.g. by subscribing to groups for the topics you are interested in (I have over 50...), I get tons of interesting stuff on your Google+ home page all the time. While Google+ groups definitely don't replace mailing lists and IRC, which are superior for discussions, it is a great complement for sharing interesting stuff happening around a technology, and (I am convinced) can do great things for the awareness of SMW outside of it's existing community. So, I figured SMW needs one, in combination with it's G+ page. From experience, I have too many opinions about how a successful G+ group should be organized (in terms of subforums, relevant links etc etc) to take it for a long discussion, so I decided the quickest is to just set one up, and then people can complain on the details if needed. (Also, I'm of course happy to add the relevant people as owners, moderators etc ... including remove myself as owner, in case wished ... but at least I wanted to get this started :) ) And all in all, welcome to chime in at http://gplus.to/semanticmw Especially now during SMWCon, I think we can use it a lot, to gain some outreach around SMWCon!
