Social Media

PS1 has some presence on some social media, and sometimes there are hashtags used to point things back to PS1.

Social Accounts

Here's a list of our known social media accounts, including ones that we might have lost access to because of bit rot and volunteers be volunteering. Hopefully this list continues to be kept updated.

Blogging

The PS1 web site is operated as a fairly member-accessible Wordpress-driven site. Right now, if a member wants to add a post to the web site, that is referred to as a "blog post." A blog post may also be edited or augmented by another member, with or without the original poster's permission.

Who controls social media?

Control for social media accounts does not generally rest with any one person. Passwords for social media should be stored in the LastPass account accessible by board members. Use of social media is generally granted to members that are trusted to keep passwords private and to represent the organization in a way that satisfies the Member Agreement, and conforms to the JFDI principle of "go ahead and JFDI as long as you don't expect significant objection and it can be undone ... "

Many members have some access to the PS1 Facebook page, Meetup account, calendar event posting privledges and social media accounts.
