Backstage Interview: Marcia Graham by Cynthia Ware from The Foursquare Church on Vimeo.
As far as I know, the Foursquare Church is the first denomination to use Twitter, the micro-blogging platform, to support it’s annual National Convention. You can follow @WeAreFoursquare & @FoursquareEvent for ongoing status updates from Connection ‘09. We’ll be here until Friday.
Also, the Vimeo channel started above will archive the video clips shot from the event.
If you Twitter, you can use the tag “#connect09″ and all your tweets will appear in the in primary stream. Although there are many people in the denomination who use Twitter, here’s a handful I thought of who are present this week who are experimenting with the usability/value of the platform. You can add your name to the Foursquare Twitter’s list by commenting here whether or not you are tweeting Connection ‘09:
and you…….
you’re just so cool!
I think you’ve just missed out on your claim – the Church of Scotland (the national Presbyterian church) has been twittering it’s annual General Assembly for the past week.
Marc – mutual fans. meben I was hoping someone would weigh in and give me other examples. thanks.
I am sure there are others, but the Vineyard National Conference in Galveston used Twitter at the beginning of May.
thanks for sharing that. Twitter is a great tool for churches to take advantage of, especially in that it allows groups to self-organize.
