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..
Cheers,

I know there are a couple of G+ pages (not sure if they are 'official'): https://plus.google.com/112917221531140868607/posts https://plus.google.com/u/0/110514354576121733241/posts
(The first one only seems to have activity on it).
There is also a twitter feed here: https://twitter.com/fedora/
I do not know who is responsible for updating to these.
I also just learned of two Facebook groups via Christoph Wickert this morning.
I'm happy to help with these any way I can, if help is needed.
There is also a Fedora Ambassadors Group on Linkedin if you just search "Fedora Ambassadors". The link is herehttp://www.linkedin.com/groups/Fedora-Ambassadors-118086/about

Thanks, but the question is not How many accounts we have. That's how to broadcast news easily.
Ive asked informally about this on IRC.
Things should be properly vetted before they are posted on behalf of the organization.
In addition, these pages are not updated very well.
Theyd be a great way to get feedback from users in a less hostile environment (compared to IRC).
Also, many things can be put up there such as tutorials, faqs, and guides.
Also recent major bugfixes can be announced and people can post questions and be answered by other users on the page.
I think Facebook and Twitter would be the 2 most important networks to have an official Fedora page.
Thanks,
Dan

Hello Everyone,
Dan, thank you for your post. :)
Some people must have put some effort to build that Wiki's content and definite update would be grand. :)
+1 for Twitter and +1 for Facebook. :D A need of followers and subscribers. ;)
I like using wordpress base entries with appropriate "tag" words for broadcasting content. :)
Thank you Sincerely, - David -

there is brdcst.it which is an autoposting service for various social networks. It's based on http://brdcst.org which is open source.
Why not use that?

+1 for Google+/FB/Twitter.
For g+,its a best place for geeks to hear the news.
Users can get announcement or broadcast via FB/Twitter.
In China,these 3 network are blocked.We use weibo.com,but it seems updates are few.

I am sure that there is a way to post updates to weibo.com from g+/identi.ca etc.

On Spain is used Facebook too much instead Google+. But, Google+ is good quality (image, presentation...) without any spam or automatic games invitation.
Guys,
The original thread was not about *which* network to use, but *how* automatically broadcast messages to all of them…
As said before, I won't take action on this.
Hi Kevin,
auto sending the messages needs api or app of some social network,but these are easy to work with.
I just want to say fedoraproject@WEIBO updates are seldom,and followers are few.I can't contact with the owner of this account(even though this account is authenticated).

Very cool, indeed! :)

Ah. I just "liked" / joined "Red Hat - APAC" at https://www.facebook.com/RedhatAPAC to get me some ideas for my next event and get some good reading, too!!! This helps to reinforce my linux exposure which helps me to grow. :)
Sending positive Fedora 16 & 17 energy to your computers now. :v)
Please have a Great Fedora day and/or evening! :~)
Thank You
Sincerely
