Actually, for a company that claims to respect openness and freedom and butterflies, it's the most bizarre thing to communicate almost exclusively through a closed, proprietary channel such as twitter. That doesn't earn them good karma.

Yes, saying nothing I could respect (although it would be frustrating to us wannabe fanbois), but having Twitter as your official face to the world just seems flaky. But, I'm an old coot...

Yep. Let them use open channels - Diaspora, Identi.ca and so on. No mandatory Twitter and FB please.

I would even understand that they use twitter just because of the userbase. I do not understand that they don't also post on identi.ca or some other federated status.net installation. Isn't there even a way to automatically mirror your content so you can cater both worlds with one dent/tweet?

Or just a simple (official) website...

- short description of jolla and what they are trying to do.
- Top structure of the company(CEO presentation)
- E-mail to company (phone later)
- Official statements(press releases).

that's required for now, nothing more needed. or do you need any thing else atm? The main goal is that all users have an official spot to look @, but also to refer to when i'm promoting jolla for anyone.

I agree but think of it: They a VERY small company and almost of them are geeks and not marketing guys/girls.

BUT I agree that is very dangerous to not have a big marketing team too... Sound more and more they will only release one phone and then die.


Or maybe there is another big coropration who really has intrests in "theyr" OS and Jolla is just a smoke what will come up from that other company later (hint: nokia? even if it really looks not likelly atm...)

You know, individual employees are quite active on IRC and related mailing lists (Mer, Nemo) too. #jollamobile on irc.freenode.net
