Have a look at The Things Network Amsterdam Twitter as an example. We have some guidelines for Twitter accounts:
Connect gateways
The Things Network is currently developing their own gateways which will be in retail near the end of this year. You can pre-order these affordable gateways in the shop already.
You probably don't want to wait that long. Happily, The Things Network supports different kinds of gateways like the Multitech, Kerlink and Lorank. You can even build your own gateway.
In case you already have a gateway, you can add it to the map.
COMMUNICATION CHANNELIn order to communicate internally, we highly recommend you to create a Slack group. It is a free messaging app that helps organizing your team conversation and allows you to directly reach out to members.
You can also use other ways of communication, as long as you make sure people have easy access to join the conversation.

AKA the Chiltern Hills Community, our mission is to provide the entire Bourne End, Cookham and indeed the South Bucks district along with the surrounding areas of the Thames Valley and the Chiltern Hills AONB with Internet of Things data connectivity by crowdsourcing the network by its citizens and local companies. From our initial focus on Bourne End, Cookham, Flackwell Heath, the course of the River Thames through the region - including its flood plains and bounding escarpments around Cliveden House & Winter Hill we have quickly expanded to cover the larger region from parts of Maidenhead borough in the south through High Wycombe district, Great Missenden and Wendover in the north and from Marlow, Henley and surroundings in the west to Gerrards Cross & The Chalfonts in the east. Significant coverage surveys have already been done from Flackwell Heath and Cookham as well as more recently around High Wycome District & the escarpments of the Chiltern Hills, out around Gerrards Cross & further afield based on both fixed gateways and pop-up sites in the target area, from the M40 in the North west, past Princes Risborough, to Wendover in the North.......stay tuned for more coverage and base station updates in the coming weeks and months!
We are happy to have you join the community. Contact the core team and help us unleash the Internet of Things in Bourne End, Cookham, High Wycombe, Maidenhead and the wider Chiltern Hills area.
