Change our workflow so that we publish posts on Twitter and push them to Identi.ca from there. Then use a Twitter client with scheduling capabilities. 2. Use the gnome.org Wordpress install to schedule microblogging posts and push them to Twitter. ... This sounds like a good plan to me - is it easy to use the Wordpress install in that way? I think it would be worth the inconvenience to be able to do this. I'm not a microblogger by nature, but it's really important we have that kind of content out there (and I usually think of things to microblog long after they're relevant, and think darn...) ... I've tried a couple of Wordpress plugins for posting to Identi.ca, but these are generally focused on sending updates when you publish a blog post, and none of them really fitted the bill. Identi.ca itself does have a feature that allows you to generate messages from an RSS/Atom feed (which we could generate using Wordpress), but the feature isn't working for me, for some reason. I'm also starting to think that using Wordpress as a microblogging platform is just wrong. :) The only thing I've found which is able to do what we need is Tweetdeck. I'd be really happy to use that on a shared GNOME account. Hmmm, there seem to be a lot of proprietary solutions for this. But hopefully we can do better - have you looked into tricklepost? Could that work for what we need? I'll do some further digging too! karen -- marketing-list mailing list marketing-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/marketing-list

I suck
Hi all, Yes, I suck. Way back in (so long ago I don't even remember which month) I interviewedd Marina about herself, her history in GNOME, her plans for WSOP and more. It was a great interview, and she put lots of time and effort into answering my questions, we did an IRC follow-up that added lots of colour to it, and my plan was to take all that material and do a really nice magazine-feature type interview, rather than just QA. Unfortunately, I never got around to it. So, to prevent myself from being a road-block to having the interview published in the annual report, I will remove myself from the process. We have a few options: * Print the QA which Marina answered in December and January as they are (with grammar checks and what not) * I can hand over QA and IRC logs, and let someone else have a go at doing the nice magazine-feature style interview-article. I believe I have previously sent everything in with a note just in case I don't get around to it, but I don't recall to whom I sent the interview. So - option A or option B? Emily, are you still guiding the Journal through its difficult birthing? Would you care to choose for me? Thanks! And sorry.

If you schedule posts, other contributors need to be able to see what has been scheduled. Otherwise you could easily end up with conflicts. And I don't want to have to leave a machine running to know that a post will be made. We might want to schedule posts weeks in advance.

I've heard lots of good things about CoTweet and groups of people tweeting on the same account. However, it doesn't do Identica.

Re: I suck
Hey Dave, Before we choose, why don't we go over what you have, and decide which would be better/more practical at this point. I'd suggest either publishing what you have on the wiki or putting it in a google doc. Or you can simply send me what you have - whichever you prefer - and I/we can sort through it and see what we think would be best. If it ends up being too much work to do the magazine type feature you imagined for the annual report, perhaps another option would be to publish it as a special feature on gnome.org. GNOME Journal has unfortunately floundered once again - I'm not entirely sure if it was ever updated to wordpress on gnome's servers, and I've never received any articles for it from anyone else :( At this point, I'm not sure a separate journal is practical, and lean more towards simply publishing material on gnome.org as it becomes available, then saving it in an archive by month/yr. Though I am certainly open to other suggestions. Emily On Tue, May 29, 2012 at 5:02 PM, Dave Neary dne...@gnome.org wrote: Hi all, Yes, I suck.
