I'm a microblogging fan, and moved from Twitter to Identi.ca exclusively a
month or two ago, but I agree that crossposting would be helpful for
marketting reasons.
There are plenty of Fedora users that use Twitter, and I think we shouldn't
stay away from sites like Youtube when making videos to help get the message
to more people.
Just my 2 cents.
