<h1>Email, Blogs, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram...</h1>
<h4><a href="#elist">Join the Email list</a></h4>

<h2 id="elist">Join the Expo Email list</h2>
<p>Email is <em>the main way we communicate</em> to organise expo. It is essentially obligatory to participate in this. Joining the email list does not commit you to come, it's just a mailing list.
<p>Sign up to get emails here: <a href="https://lists.wookware.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/expo">lists.wookware.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/expo"</a>.
This is a new email system created in 2018 so if you think you are already on the list but you joined
before 2018, and you haven't been getting many emails recently, you are probably on the wrong list.
So visit <a href="https://lists.wookware.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/expo">that webpage</a> and sign up to the new expo list (hosted on wookware.org not on the university).
<p>You will be sent email requesting confirmation, to prevent others from gratuitously subscribing you. This is a private list, which means that the list of members is not available to non-members.
<p>The email list is old-school: text only, no fancy formatting and only small file attachments allowed.
<p>Once you have signed up, you can also choose whether or not to be visible to the other people on the list. To see the other members of the list ("subscribers" to the list) look at <a href="https://lists.wookware.org/cgi-bin/mailman/roster/expo">the roster</a>. (A link to this roster is at the bottom of your sign-in page.)
<h2 id="fbexpo">Expo on Facebook (public)</h2>
<p>
This year's Expo Group on <b>Facebook</b>: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/189492668280413/">CUCC EXPO 20xx</a> - private. You will need to apply to join this and you should if you have a Facebook account.
<p>
Public face of the CUCC Expo on <b>Facebook</b>: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/CUCCEXPO/">
Cambridge University Caving Expedition</a>.
<p>
During expo we try to do organisational things on the former and public discoveries on the latter. For example, we are organing the expo training weekends on the private group.
<p>
We have a <b>Twitter</b> feed but posting to this is intermittent (nothing during 2019 for example): <a href="https://twitter.com/CUCC_Expo">@CUCC_Expo
</a> but loads of stuff during 2017 and 2018.
<p>There is also an <b>Instagram</b> feed: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/cambridge_uni_caving_expo/">cambridge_uni_caving_expo</a>. Only 30 posts, but some wonderful photography. If you are looking for an expo-related background for your computer, this is the place. But there's also very good stuff on the ukcaving blogs too.
<p>
<br>
Also see CUCC on facebook: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/2231419680/">Cambridge University Caving Club (CUCC)</a> - public.
<h2 id="ukcaving">UK Caving Blog</h2>
<p>
We maintain a blog during expo on ukcaving.com . Since it is a blog, anyone on expo can post their own reports so it is more convenient for most than the facebook, twitter and instagram accounts which are each under the control on one person at a time. The 2018 blog is particularly detailed and well illustrated.
<ul>
<li>2015: <a href="https://ukcaving.com/board/index.php?topic=20297.0"> ULSA report</a>
<li>2016: <a href="https://ukcaving.com/board/index.php?topic=21253.0"> Camping in Tunnocksschacht</a>
<li>2017 Nothing?
<li>2018: <a href="https://ukcaving.com/board/index.php?topic=23424.0"> Training weekend and expo</a>
<li>2019: <a href="https://ukcaving.com/board/index.php?topic=25195.0"> Expo</a>
</ul>

<h2 id="otherstuff">Googledocs and other stuff</h2>
<p>
Every year we try out new ways of organising ourselves: committee meeting minutes, recording decisions, organising transport etc.
<p>
We usually have a couple of Googledocs spreadsheets on the go, but details of how to get at these - and any other software tools we might find useful - will be distrributed via email and the expo mailing list.
