Spreading Tweak the Tweet syntax for Chile

[Sophia Liu]

Project EPIC has created a set of prescriptive tweets using the Tweak the Tweet syntax for the Chile earthquake. You can find both the english and spanish versions of these tweets in this Google document (http://bit.ly/9psDqd).

Please help us by ReTweeting these from our @epiccolorado and @TtT_Pacific Twitter accounts.

We would like to have response and relief organizations like the Red Cross, World Bank, or other appropriate organizations retweet these prescriptive tweets so that more people will pick up the syntax and make it useful. Let me know if you have any ideas or if you can help with this effort. 

Feel free to contact me at any of these places:

I know someone is "on duty" at Mashable and Techcrunch - there's quite
a bit of discussion on Twitter centered around their blogs. I'd ask
them to blog about it - I'm about to do a post, but they have a lot
bigger reach than I do.

Good idea although I'm not sure how I would approach them about this. Does anyone have experience communicating with Mashable and Techcrunch for something like this?

Probably all you need to do is an @reply to one of their tweets about
Chile. I'm about to do that too.
