Hi all,
ADHO chair Neil Fraistat posted an announcement about GO::DH to Humanist yesterday. This was very effective in getting word out and we had about 20 people join the list yesterday.
Since this group is in part about crossing dividing lines, it might also make sense for our members to post the announcement to other relevant lists they know of, especially national, regional, or disciplinary lists. If we reported back the names of some of the lists we used, this would also be a good step in collecting a sense of how we can contact the global DH community.
I'm copying Neil's announcement below. If you are posting to a non-English speaking list, please feel free to translate or paraphrase the more important parts if you think that would be useful.
I'll post it now to digitalmedievalist (dm-l@uleth.ca) and the TEI lists.
Dear all,
On behalf of The Alliance of Digital Humanities Organizations (ADHO), I'm delighted to announce the creation of our first Special Interest Group: Global Outlook::Digital Humanities (GO::DH) and to invite your participation.
GO::DH is a Community of Interest whose purpose is to address barriers that hinder communication and collaboration among researchers and students of the Digital Arts, Humanities, and Cultural Heritage sectors across and between High, Mid, and Low Income Economies.
The core activities of GO::DH are Discovery, Community-Building, Research, and Advocacy. Its goal is to leverage the complementary strengths, interests, abilities, and experiences of participants through special projects and events, profile and publicity activity, and by encouraging collaboration among individuals, projects, and institutions. It is founded on the principle that work is being done in many countries and regions and that we all have much to learn from each other.
Participation in GO::DH is open to all who share its aims. If you are interested in participating in this initiative, you can visit the GO::DH website http://www.globaloutlookdh.**org/ http://www.globaloutlookdh.org/ , join the GO::DH mailing list (http://listserv.uleth.ca/**mailman/listinfo/** globaloutlookdh-l http://listserv.uleth.ca/mailman/listinfo/globaloutlookdh-l ), or follow it on Facebook or Twitter (@globaloutlookdh).
Best, Neil
Hello, everyone.
Many thanks to Ernesto Priego for posting the announcement on HASTAC: http://bit.ly/X9dHHG.
I also forwarded Neil's announcement, together with a link to Ernesto's HASTAC post, to HASTAC's steering committee as well as the techrhet listserv.
Best, Jentery
Ya lo pasé a mi lista de correos, 300 direcciones de Cuba. Veremos quiénes se animan. Además, lo incluiremos en el próximo número del boletín Compendio del Observatorio Crítico, que llega a unos 1 000 buzones de hispanohablantes. Lo pongo en FB ahora.

Yo lo pasare por Twitter también y haré eco desde tu página Yasmin.
Saludos a todos.
