SFC accounts

 * http://identi.ca/freeculture
 * http://twitter.com/freeculture
 * http://freelish.us/freeculture

How do I log in?
One of these:
 * look in ~freecult/passwords on the freeculture.org machine
 * Ask the right person. This might include any of:
 * Any board members since 2009
 * Parker Phinney
 * Any of the webteamers

Be prepared to justify why you need to log in if it's not obvious.

How do posts happen?

 * People with the passwords can post but only a few do on a regular basis
 * Posts to identi.ca automagically go to Twitter
 * Posts to twitter do not go automagically go to identi.ca
 * Pretty much anyone who @s freeculture will be re-tweeted
 * board@ gets pinged by identi.ca about followers and mentions

What is appropriate to post?
Driscoll's idiosyncratic criteria for posting with @freeculture have been:
 * News about the org
 * News about a chapter
 * News about a member
 * Something cool that a chapter/member is doing or has written (new projects, blog posts)
 * Take-action items of interest to chapters/members
 * News from affiliated groups of interest to chapters/members (e.g. Public Knowledge reacts to something happening in Congress)
