Howdy, Having worked in marketing communications for many years, this sounds interesting. :) Not sure how much time I would be able to dedicate to this team, but count me in anyway. A couple of observations to your post follow below.

I am under the impression that US suffers from a shortage of resources. If that is the case (those in the know, please confirm or deny), besides end users which are of course a natural goal, the strategy should also take into account both technical and non-technical potential contributors as a target, End users and contributors may not always be mutually exclusive, but they do require different message platforms and possibly even communication channels. > The two services that immediately come to mind are facebook and twitter, but > I'd also be open to incorporating soundcloud or vimeo into our strategy to > showcase the work done with ubuntu studio. > > Ultimately it depends on how many people are dedicated to joining this team. > If we had 10 people, we could allocate responsibilities so not just one > person is doing all of the work.

It is good practice to avoid the bottleneck that can happen over time when the only person with admin rights gets busy with real life or goes MIA for whatever reason.
