What's #GISChat, you ask?
I organize and host "#GISchat”, a weekly and worldwide forum on social media for people all over the world to connect and network with other geospatial industry professionals and discuss topics of interest. This outlet averages thousands of interactions and reaches 800,000+ people per week.
#GISChat started on Twitter (X) but you can find the hashtag used across many platforms as a sort of bat signal to reach other mappy people. I try and cross post the conversation starters on Mastodon, Instagram, and Threads, but Twitter (X) is the main place you'll find the conversations.
I also was not always the host of this; I first started joining the conversation in 2017 when it was still #GISTribe.
You can learn more about it with these two podcast episodes:
