Buddhists On Twitter

November 19, 2008 · by Loden Jinpa · Buddhism, News 

Hi Folks,

Below is a list of Buddhists using Twitter. The list has been created and published so Buddhists from all traditions can easily find and follow each other on twitter. Please do not SPAM these people.

Rules
To be added you must:

1: Send me a direct message on Twitter. The reason for this is not to increase the number of people following me on twitter, but to collect the requests and twitter profiles in one location. As you can imagine, I get a lot of people contacting me for various reasons. I am contacted for Buddhist related questions, philosophical questions, requests for prayers for recently passed loved ones. So, please be patient with me, I will get to your request.

2: Who can join? Individuals, dharma centers, temples and some businesses that are strictly dharma focused. However, I will screen every profile, and it is my sole discretion who will be added. The reason for allowing commercial profiles is to allow for those wishing to sell dharma books and so forth.
Note: If you are selling something that a fully ordained monk would not be happy with don’t bother requesting to be added to this list. Your request will be ignored.

3: Please act within the basic precepts of Buddhism, if you do not, you may be removed from the list.

4: Obviously this is a list for Buddhists on Twitter. In order to be included on this list you need to clearly display that you are a Buddhist, either via your twitter profile or via a blog post. Besides, if your not a Buddhist why would you want to be on it anyway.

Please blog and or Tweet the list in order that everyone is included, thank you, Loden Jinpa.

    Could you also add medit8? That’s my other Twitter account. Thanx, Bodhipaksa

    It’s nice to have this list. Maybe Twitter or an associated application could allow dynamic creation of such lists based on topic, keyword or popular tweats.

    -d

    I believe there is such an application…cant remember what it is called now.

    Once again, thanks for creating the list.

    Have you considered creating a new Twitter username to manage this list, too? I can see that it will be easier to add and drop names. Also, I think there’s a way to follow one’s friends all at once? I am lazy, I know. :-) The link to this page, the rules, can be posted in the profile section of that username. Just a thought. :-)

    Darren, I am checking out TweetDeck (tweetdeck.com) that is suppose to let you manage tweets into topics or groups. You might want to check it out, too.

    @Jason Yes, I did think about setting up another account, however, as my attention is already fragmented enough and as this is something I wish to avoid, I decided to not go with that method.

Got something to say?
