Re: [ontology-summit] Question about the Summit hashtag

I used the hashtag #OntologySummit on the day, not knowing one had been set up.     (01)

Not sure what value the additional 4 characters '2013' (or even 2 characters 
'13') add to this.     (02)

The year is useful if you are using an acronym and want a reasonably sure way 
of disambiguating with other things of a similar acronym - so if one is going 
to set up a hashtag in advance and publicise it, one would use #os2013 for 
example since #os could be anything (the date at least informally suggests this 
must be some event).     (03)

The middle ground is something like #OSummit13 or #OntSummit - again only if 
publicized in advance.     (04)

The only useful application of a long hashtag is if there is not the chance to 
publicise it in advance, and you want people who read someone's tweets to be 
able to guess what the event is.    (05)

Thank you, Gary. Glad you asked, Marc. ...    (09)


Marc & All,    (010)


Yes, we did set up the hash tag #OntologySummit2013 (ref.
http://ontolog.cim3.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?OntologySummit2013#nid3J1Y ).    (011)

Anyhow, ...    (012)

* that doesn't get used much (if at all) ... maybe it's the culture of
this community (which started way before tweets or even social media
existed)    (013)

* we don't show up in the blogosphere much, either, but you can see
some of that listed under:
http://ontolog.cim3.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?OntologySummit2013#nid3J1W    (014)

* if you (or for that matter, anyone) is putting anything about the
OntologySummit or the Summit Communique on the web or in any
publication, please make sure you send me a link, so I can include
that in the abovementioned section (or, even better, post that
yourself there.)    (015)

* there have been recommendations that we use a shorter hashtag ...
what do people think?    (016)


Thanks & regards. =ppy
