Join us for the Scottish tourism and travel Twitter chat #scotlandhour on Wednesday 24th April 2013 from 9-10pm GMT.
April’s theme for #scotlandhour is Festivals.
We want to hear about festivals, large and small, celebrated and less well-known, food and drink, culture, music, wildlife and nature, the arts: you name it – where is it and what’s good about it? If you have room in your tweets, you could also add the hashtag #festivals
If you haven’t participated in #scotlandhour yet or you’re not aware of the new format, here’s how it works:
The hosts of #ScotlandHour: @BairdTravels, @ScotlandHour @HIEHamilton, @AileenLamb, myself, @lesleyjudge, @SusanMcNaughton and @FionaDrane will Tweet out a series of 5 questions: at 9:00 pm, 9:10 pm, 9:20 pm, 9:30 pm, 9:40 pm.
For example:
Q1: Where is your favourite holiday place in Scotland and why? #ScotlandHour
Follow the Q1 question prompt and to signpost, so that we know everyone’s responding to the same question, reply with your corresponding “A1”, for example – and don’t forget to include the hashtag at the end:
A1: We love Loch Lomond because of the great views and walks! #ScotlandHour
Every 10 minutes there will be a new question, eg Q2, Q3, etc, prompting an answer labelled “A2”, “A3” etc – and 10 minutes for you to Tweet your responses before we all start answering the next question.
From 9:50 pm the remaining 10 minutes of the hour will return to the free format, so that contributors can add comments, catch up in a general way and just enjoy the #Scotlandhour chat!
