Will anyone be setting up a twitter stream from SPAH? It would be great for those of us who cannot attend - to follow a stream of comments, photos, videos, soundclips, etc.

It would also help to magnify the impact of the event and the SPAH mission, reaching the smartphones of the global harmonica community, as it happens!

No official plans to do it, though it's been on my mind. Former SPAH webmaster and presidential candidate Bob Cohen was doing it back in 2009 as he had no official convention function at the time; mostly we staffers are too busy running around making things happen.

If folks coming to the convention could tweet using the hashtag, that's be great!

I guess what needs to happen is:

1. Somebody decides on a hashtag, like #SPAH, #SPAH2015, or #SPAHarp, etc .... and communicates it to everyone there-maybe a poster at the registration desk.
2. Enough attendees have the twitter app on their phones to start posting comments, photos, soundclips, videos.
3. It goes viral.

This is a great idea ... will have to start using twitter just for this!

Please keep us posted if someone acts on this.
