Hello, Fedora Activists! We are a group of students from Allegheny College who have dedicated ourselves to promoting Fedora by using Twitter. We created this Wiki page in order to encourage others to promote Fedora using Twitter, and it will be edited regularly with updates, links, and etiquette on how to successfully operate a Fedora's Twitter account.
Promoting Fedora by using Twitter
Our Goal. . .
To promote Fedora 13 in an effort to expand the community, by using Twitter
Why should we use Twitter?
- Twitter is effective at reaching large audience
- We are capable of giving many updates on Fedora 13 throughout the day, which keeps followers in involved in the process
- It allows Fedora to reach an untapped, less technically interested group of users
