Well...

As I say in the first place, I first had to get away all my encounter feelings to that network. I'm of the ones that think that maybe its not as open as should be, with his privacy problems and stuff, but like Bryen say:

"So, if you feel that in your region/market, Facebook works well, GO FOR IT!"

Thats exactly the reason why I chose FB for this, because here in my country almost everybody its a heavy user of FB, and its the common way to call for meetings, and just get together.

So, my intention its boost openSUSE and GoSVe taking advantage of the platform, because the common use here its to enter on that net at least 4 times per week, or at least that was the result of a quick marketing survey that I did.

So, I GO FOR IT!

Thank you for your thoughts! :D

Cheers! :D

Very good idea. Are you willing to set up a wiki page with a skeleton, and put info there as it comes up on this list?

As andreas mentioned, there was a page with this: http://old-en.opensuse.org/Marketing/SocNet Content can be copied over (if relevant).

And Andreas also made http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Social_media_contacts

It seems that you lost few pages on the way :) (sincerely me too :D )

I rearranged the article group. You can pick new page locations from the template. http://en.opensuse.org/Template:Socnet_navbar

I don't think it makes sense to have the Twitter user list in the wiki, instead let's add all users to the @openSUSE/contributors twitter list. If any is missing, tell me and I add it. we can also remove the Google Wave list since Google Wave is dead now

Dear people, I had once suggested that we add a widget to our sites/blogs, which list recent tweets with the #openSUSE hashtag. However, as my familiarity with the twitter API approaches zero, I couldn't implement the suggestion. Today I came across this wordpress plug-in [1], which, for all practical purposes, performs the same action for a customisable hashtag. Could we not incorporate this into our personal sites as well as on official ones? Also this [2] seems to be a possible solution across multiple . Am trying to use in my blog here [3], but it fails to work suitably. Maybe one of you can offer a better solution. Please point us to alternatives, if any, as I think a centrally standardised widget visible in several places should be a good thing.

Hi All, I can work on a widget myself if you would like to, however after the wiki transition is complete and give me a month after that :). That way I can learn too On Sun, 2010-09-05 at 12:12 +0200, Jos Poortvliet wrote:

I don't really know any alternatives myself, but it sounds like a good plan. We can collect the widgets or links on our wiki: http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Marketing_materials#.28Micro.29blogging Just add these links here, maybe with some explanation. See if something else comes up or if you can find something - and there might be good artwork too, on our git repository (of which I still have no idea where it is hehe).

Cheers, Jos

Sorry for the late response. Job done[A]. Someone please check if the code as I put it on the page works.

Also, I'm not sure if the location of the post is correct. Please clarify.
