Social Media Working Group
From Joomla! Documentation
Welcome to the Tweet & Fbing Team[edit]
it's me, Hagen Graf, and I want to invite you to join the Joomla! Tweet Team! It started July 28th as simple 'one tweet a day job' and now we are trying to clean up a bit. First we collect information ...
Facebook[edit]
Team[edit]
The team is actually 16 people and I'm (Sully) loathe to expand it. It's most of the CoC (Community oversight committee), a lot of OSM, a few from CLT, a few from the Forum global mods and that's it.
Rules[edit]
- No politics or governance at all.
- One post per weekday except in unusual circumstances.
- Priority goes to Joomla! releases--if there's a security or new version release, we post that and only that for 24 hours.
- Do not "Like" our own posts.
- We normally avoid mentioning about products or services developed by companies.
- We do mention great sites built with Joomla.
The challenge with FB is that we need to moderate discussion, encourage newbies and take out the spam
Twitter[edit]
List of known channels[edit]
The"official ones"[edit]
as far as I/we now
- Twitter: @joomla - Follow us
- Twitter: @joomlaevents - Follow us
- Facebook: is http://www.facebook.com/joomla - Like us
There are lists of accounts related to Joomla too
unknown or a bit dubious ... for us in the tweet team[edit]
Do you know more? We want to get in contact with you to join forces! Join the chat!
- Twitter: @JoomlaDeveloper <- an old, official account but the password has been lost.
- Twitter: @JoomlaCLT
The Team wants to tweet & fbing![edit]
"We" are at the moment[edit]
There are more people which are not in the tweet team but able to tweet from the @joomla account. We try to collect all of them.
We want to tweet @joomla
- retweet interesting tweets about Joomla! in general
- tweet each day one or more interesting links from joomla.org
We want to tweet @joomlaevents
- retweet interesting tweets about Joomla! events (Joomla Days/Joomla User Groups)
- tweet each day one or more interesting links from joomla.org
Therefor we need your help to find the real cool links/tweets.
Informal Skype Chat[edit]
I created a Skype Chat called "Joomla! Tweet Team #joott" Skype was the easiest solution so far
We have four rules:[edit]
- no biting or scratching - translated, this means play nice!
- Sander, Javier and me are allowed to tweet (I don't know whether we have more users with the permission to tweet)
- In case of lack of consensus, any of us 3 have the final decision
- We normally avoid tweeting about products or services developed by companies.
- We do mention great sites built with Joomla. Tweet us @joomla to bring them to our attention.
