Twitter handle

[Brian Croxall]

Hi all,

When setting up our Twitter Account for THATCamp SE, we chose the handle @THATCamp_SE over @THATCampSE (in part to avoid any goatse connections). It appears that there is a @THATCampSE account anyway, and I wondered if anyone on this list had set it up. I think we'd be better off having only one landing spot for the Camp on Twitter.

If people prefer, we could change the Twitter name to @thatcampSE once the other account is removed.

Thanks, and I'll see you (some of you) tonight at Manuel's!
Brian

As much as I would like to claim making the CampSE account, it wasn't me!

I remember that afternoon when everything was getting set up ... I was trying to get a Twitter account at the same time Brian was.  I wonder if I accidentally set this up.  Will check on that and report back

@THATCampSE seems to be deactivated now ... not sure if I did that or not.

I'm looking forward to seeing everyone tonight

Through a complicated series of maneuvers, it appears that I might have been the person that set up the account as well as the person that forgot it. However that happened, I got in and I deactivated the account.

As a quick poll, do people think that @thatcamp_SE is preferable to @thatcampSE? Since the latter is now gone, I could switch the real account to that if it's more natural. I personally hate the underscore in things, but goatse associations aren't desirable either.

I vote for @thatcampSE!

I second @thatcampSE. I'm not a big fan of the underscore.

Here is a third for “thatcampSE.”  Eliminating the underscore potentially eliminates several questions.

I'm not a fan of the underscore either. And I had no idea what goatse
was until I just Googled it. Thanks a lot, Brian.

Curses. Apologies all for the confrontation with goatse. That was definitely not my intent.

I'll change the Twitter handle.
Brian

[Brian Croxall]

Hmm. It's not letting me change the handle at the moment. There might need to be a few days to purge the previous THATCampSE from the system before a new one can be created. I'll monitor the situation.

I hit a deadline--tomorrow.  So I am desperately writing.  I'm sorry!  But I hope you will share some notes about what you discuss.
