Onaswarm is pleased to announce that we’ve set up a “swarm” especially for the Metronauts / Transit Camp community. Your swarm – http://metronauts.onaswarm.com – will create a lifestream to capture and share all community posts, twits and photos about this community.
Signing up
If you don’t have an Onaswarm account, signing up is very easy:
- go to http://onaswarm.com/admin/create/
- enter the promotion code “metronauts”
You’ll then be lead through a set of simple steps to add your profile and social network information. You’ll automatically be added to the metronauts swarm.
If you already have an Onaswarm account:
- login
- go to http://metronauts.onaswarm.com
- click on the “Join Swarm” link in the About box
Posting
ou must use the “metronauts” tag when posting in order for your post to show up on the Metronauts group:
- on del.icio.us, Word Press and Flickr, add “metronauts” to the tag field
- on Twitter and Pownce, use the hash tag “#metronauts” in your twit – you can see examples of this on the Metronauts swarm
Generally your post/twit/photo will show up in Onaswarm about 15 – 30 minutes after posting, depending on load. Del.icio.us feeds are only checked every hour, due to terms of use restrictions so they may take a little bit longer to show up.
