Organizing on Twitter centers around the use of hashtags, and I’ve detailed my latest example of organizing around hashtags in my post “#taxcuts: Creating Twitter Hashtags that Inspire Action.” Soon after, Jon Pincus and I began working on recommendations for how progressives can use the hashtag #p2 and Twitter in a way that facilitates action on and offline as documented in “The #p2 Hashtag and Strategies for Progressives on Twitter.” I hope you’ll read our recommendations and tell us what you think. It would be a big mistake for us to ignore the potential Twitter has for online organizing.
