| + | There are a vast number of additional real-time systems for getting and staying in touch with others in the community. [[Communications|This page]] has a list of many of the offerings currently in use. Some of these are dedicated to a specific topic of interest to members, often a real-world interest or shared kink.

| − | The below headings are links to various resources that have been established for the Transliminal community, an expansion of the information originally found in [http://transliminal.dreamwidth.org/1210.html this Dreamwidth post]. Access to the resources below is usually limited to people already closely involved with the Seattle community, so others should bear that in mind when deciding whether or not to request access.

| − | The first attempt at a centralized community organization blog. Mainly used as a roster of interested people and a place to post documents or ideas. Interested parties may [http://www.dreamwidth.org/community/join?comm=transliminal request access] to the community.

| − | === [https://trello.com/transliminal Trello Organization] ===
| |
| − | This has a few parts. The above link is to the general Trello page for the community. You'll need to [https://trello.com/signup set up a Trello account] before you can do much other than view stuff, but it's a nice quick minimal signup.

| − | The most important thing there currently is the [https://trello.com/b/EyiZYWEa/general-planning General Planning] board, which you should be able to see on that page. The idea behind this is to have a place to write down what we're doing and what we want to do. We say "We should really..." a lot, and often everyone just nods and it gets lost. I think it'd be really cool to try to make a habit to put every single one of those things on this board. Even if they never get past 'To Do', it's better to have them there and visible then to have them dissapear into conversation.

| − | === [https://app.groupme.com/join_group/10717651/zFd3rt GroupMe] ===
| |
| − | If you're not familiar with GroupMe, it's a group chat system that has both mobile and web clients. The really cool thing about it is it stores the entire history of a chat and makes it visible to anyone who joins at any point, so it's easy to catch up. You can also have it send updates directly to mobile, so you can use it like chat, or mute those entirely and just check in every once in a while. We have used GroupMe really effectively at conventions in the past, and hopefully it'll remain a good way to stay in touch.

| − | There's no signup here, by design; this is just a place we've been using a lot to dump longer-form thoughts, especially for posting to Twitter. It's quick and anonymous and tuned for our own sort of text-sharing, rather than for code like most things of this sort. | |
