I would suggest that for Fedora Magazine and the Community Blog, we follow Justin's suggestion and use Jetpack (or an equivalent) to auto-post the publication of new content to the Fedora accounts on Twitter, Facebook, and Google+. As Joe said, I don't think this will flood the accounts at all. Justin: I hear your concerns, but there isn't terribly much of a negative effect if a social media account covers a broad range of topics. Yes, there are certainly times when you want to break things up into targeted areas (@redhatevents vs @redhatnews, for instance), but that's primarily a marketing tool to channel customers into more direct consumer niches. If the concern is content overload, then I would be interested to see if JetPack or the equivalent would have scheduling capabilities.
Okay, I see. Looking at what both you and Joe said, I think it probably won't hurt to having both hit the official channels, and it will probably help bring the CommBlog into people's feeds and help promote readership - I know I'm not a marketing master and you all have a decent amount more experience and knowledge than me anyways. :)
If it ever does become an issue, we can always just separate them in the future.
In the meanwhile, I definitely think the best way to hook this up is with Jetpack. My understanding is that it just requires someone who is both a Magazine / CommBlog admin and also has the keys to the social media accounts to set up automatic posting. This should be doable at this page:
