First post: I'm a public historian who tweets mostly about #publichistory #progressivepolitics #spokane and #bicycles . Hoping to find my old Tweeps and new friends here when Elmo blows up Twitter.

Public historian, occasional bicyclist, noted bon vivant. My posts are not sanctioned by God nor Man nor my employers.
@dsquintana Plus humanities grants take months to write for like $30k.
@kmobriant Don't get your hopes up.
@kmobriant Wow what a thread! My original training was in #ethnohistory and I used L&C journals in my first book. In 2004 my family participated in the bicentennial hysteria by following the trail from Missouri to the sea--a frequently annoying experience for an ethnohistorian moving into public history!
@katethornhill It's my favorite conference. Very welcoming. Very much an organization of powerful women. Great engagement with the city where it is hosted. And dine-arounds, where you sign up to have dinner with a dozen likely strangers who share a common interest.
I am a huge fan of #Curatescape as a platform for teaching. My site Spokane Historical has grown to 700 geolocated stories, all written by my students at #EasternWashingtonUniversity. It's based on #Omeka so it's going to be around. https://spokanehistorical.org/

@joemo I'll have you know that I had dozens of followers on Twitter. DOZENS.
@Limerick1914 Yeah I had created some neat classroom activities in Google Fusion Tables. I never did find a replacement, did you?
