Hi @mfi, I just did a search for #HumanGeography and your introduction was one of the few posts I found. Any recommendations on accounts/ servers to dig into for human geography insights?

I'm particularly intrigued by the idea of the net as a "place", or online spaces as "places", in the way that term is used as an analytical frame within human geography. Also the degree to which a digital human geography might overlap with a digital anthropology, and what distinguishes these approaches.
