Hi, Arturo, all,
It does not seem appropriate for a technical standards organization dedicated
to making the Internet work better through the development of open standards to
implicitly endorse "communication protocols" which are based on closed access
to distributed databases through interfaces that can and do change at the whim
of the organizations that control them, further where those organizations have
demonstrated a willingness to assert editorial control over the content they
disseminate.
If a social network were to emerge that allows open participation at _every_
level, based on an open application protocol therefor, that would be something
different. I fear that network effects have already made such a thing unlikely
in this iteration of "Internet x.0".
(Aside: I myself have used all three listed networks to get attention for ISOC
functions at the chapter level, though I'm uneasy about that. I won't dispute
that they're great for outreach, and when you're doing outreach, you have to go
where the people are. In my defense, though, I was advertising a talk wherein I
discussed why it's a bad idea to rely on such closed platforms. :) )
Cheers,
Brian

Why not?
I, my organization and many more (included ISOC) have found them very useful
for outreach activities. I do not see why the IETF shouldn't. Please, tell me.

Very good initiative.
Twitter, Google+, Facebook, etc. could be the next steps. Let's embrace new
tools to collaborate.
Let's not. Collaboration based on software running on servers run by the
IETF
or a contractor payed by the IETF is fine. Using collaboration tools owned
by
the entities you listed, or similar entities, is not.
