I think this is a good idea. +1 On it.fedoracommunity.org we use FB and twitter to keep in contact the italian users, publishing local events, Fedora releases and international events like Fudcon. It's an appreciated system to comunicate with users which don't have time to visit regularly the local community website.
On the other side you need someone who amministrate the channels, because i.e. Fb often change it's options and some feeds are not published the right way. ----------------- Robert Mayr (robyduck) TIM: la tua mail in mobilità con il BlackBerry® -----Original Message----- From: Kévin Raymond <[email protected]> Sender: [email protected] Date: Sat, 7 Jul 2012 14:50:04 To: For discussions about marketing and expanding the Fedora user base<[email protected]> Cc: Fedora Websites Team<[email protected]>; Fedora ambassadors list<[email protected]> Subject: The use of social networks Hi there, I am not involved in other social things than the Fedora Planet and our mailing lists… So this email is about an idea that I won't resolve by myself :). We just had an IRC discussion about the use of our social network on websites. Couldn't we set up a broadcasting service to publish on our official Facebook, Google+, identi.ca and Twitter pages? Like what is sent through the announce mailing list, or to auto-send announce message about the beta availability, the release day… Also shooting the release notes link would be great, has people still come asking "Is there anybody know where to get the info about the new features and capability of fedora 17?" (just this morning on -docs). There could also be something that I am not aware of..
