• Better titles for blog posts

Further ideas

• wiki page with description of Marketing
  • Sell Xubuntu
• Planet for xubuntu.org
  • Aggregate developer blogs
  • We can show titles only or complete posts
  • Okay as long as everybody posting is a Ubuntu Member (discussion with stgraber)
• Moderated newsfeed aggregation?
  • Select feeds for aggregation
  • Parse out items that have keyword X in them
  • This way we'd be able to gather the Xubuntu news easy
  • We can also use feeds from Google...

• Facebook and Twitter accounts have great impact on projects.

  • perhaps a youtube video about Xubuntu, make it grab attention
