The Why and How...

Following on from a theme in my last thread; The great Elite: Dangerous Premiere photos, videos and articles Index! I thought I'd have a go at sharing more experiences and bringing a wider group of people together.

Over the past few months there have been countless number of thoughts, conversations and images shared about Elite: Dangerous over on Twitter. It's been great fun following the forums here - but also seeing other players' experiences, ideas and screenshots in 140 characters or less.

With Elite: Dangerous about to launch I'd like to try and find a way of bringing together and communicating with a larger group of people on Twitter as well as on the forums.

I've created and started to populate a (hopefully great - and maybe even definitive!) list of Commanders - and set up some auto-magical internet gubbins to help you join the list.

If you want to add yourself to this list, simply tweet at me with the text below;

  • @AllYourBlocks Add #EliteDangerous Commanders

You should also Subscribe to the list to track the conversation more easily. It's a great way to dip in and out without clogging up your Twitter feed and notifications. Here's a direct link to the list where you can find the big Subscribe button; http://twitter.com/AllYourBlocks/lists/Commanders

When the list gets full (max 5,000 Members), I will create more lists and more auto-magical internet gubbins to handle those lists too.

I hope that some or all of you find this useful. I'm looking forward to continuing conversations, joining new ones and making some new friends out in the Twittervoid!

Fly safe Commanders :)

Ive also set up a twitter account that tweets any dev posts made on the forum

https://twitter.com/ED_DevPosts

Might want to add that one as well?

Awesome! You've been auto-added you to the Commanders (players) list and I've manually added the Dev Posts account to the Elite-ists (people, content creators, communities) list - hope that covers all the bases! ;)

Great job on that Dev Tracker, that's incredibly useful!

So I've returned to twitter after an absence of more than a year. How exactly does this list thing work?

Google is your friend, but so am I, try here; http://support.twitter.com/articles/76460-using-twitter-lists

I've embellished it by creating and testing a If This Then That recipe that fires every so often and checks for the Tweet text I pasted above. If it finds it, it automatically adds the Tweeter to the list I've created.

You can also Subscribe to the list to follow the conversation more easily - which I would also recommend doing, here; http://twitter.com/AllYourBlocks/lists/Commanders
