A few considerations: * I might be being pedantic here, but I think we should try and stick to the term 'release parties' and not 'launch parties'. 'Launch' makes it sound like people will be able to start using GNOME 3 straight away. * Whatever tag we choose, it should be usable across sites, including Twitter and Identica. * Should we encourage people to use the 'gnome3' tag as well as the party tag? (I think we possibly should.) I know Pockey had some ideas here... My suggestion would be gnome3parties. > I like the idea from Allan to have a competition for the best Photos. > (Photos is much easier and more than videos. ) Question is - what would the prize be? They're already being sent goodies.
