How to handle the Twitter Account #362
Comments
Call of 21.02: The TF thinks that option 2 is a good direction. Our current account description allows for this given that it is not saying WG or IG content. This means that all WoT-related group chairs have access to social media accounts. In case the platform allows for an organization accounts with individuals as admins, that should be also used. Prefixes can simply be:

This has been discussed in the main call and a group resolution has been reached. The policy at https://www.w3.org/WoT/IG/wiki/Marketing_WebConf#Policies_and_Publication_Procedures has been updated accordingly |
We have discussed how to use the Twitter account but it is not documented in the issues so far. The last call minutes about this topic are available at https://www.w3.org/2022/10/18-wot-marketing-minutes.html
I see different solutions. I will list them below and then give my opinion on why we should pick one or the other.

My opinion:
We should go with option 2 or 3 since we should not split our existing and future follower base and make people follow different Twitter accounts. If the CG will decide to get its own Twitter account, it will probably retweet everything from the WG/IG account, meaning that there will be much more content there which can lead to WG/IG account becoming less visited. Also, people who are interested in WoT may not notice the CG account and do not follow up with the updates there and miss out on what is happening in WoT in general. Additionally, the current description says nothing about the WG or IG, not even the account name or account handle is specific about this. It is already vague in the sense that it can be for anything about the Web of Things inside W3C and I think it should be. Web of Things in W3C is not a WG, IG or CG, it is an overall effort and we should reflect this. There was a mention that if we do this, this is sort of like Marcomm Team doing general Web of Things outreach, thus not tied to a certain group. I do not know if Marcomm team is intending to do this but I do not think that this is something that they usually do.
