=What social media is good for=
Mozilla has always spread first and foremost by word-of-mouth.  As more and more social networking venues appear, there are more and more potential communications channels.  As the launch of Firefox 3 [http://blogs.zdnet.com/feeds/?p=140 showed], the power of word-of-mouth through a wide variety of communications channels helped start a record-breaking level of participation.

These are just some of the sites where someone can share content. Here's a (non-exhaustive) list of different social media Mozilla Reps might be interested in using to spread the word about Mozilla and their activities:
==What to share==
As a Rep you'll have lots of activities and news to share with your followers.
* Upcoming events
* News and pictures from local and global events you took part in
* Other people's posts that your followers would enjoy
* Introduce about Mozilla's projects
* Mozilla News
* Mozilla Updates
* Mozilla experience
 
==What not to share==
* Inappropriate contents, photos, pictures, videos
* Material mocking other browsers
* Internal discussions
 
== Social media groups for your region/project ==
Each region has a different approach and use of the media. In some cases it's inevitable to have a group of people to work specifically on a project or in a region. This aims to have  structured presence in the social media and to avoid redundant work and unnecessary information.
 
=== Checking for existing ones ===
We need a list of the different social media groups sorted by region and projects.
For every group we need to know how to contact them.
 
=== Creating new ones ===
* TBAdded
 
=== Using groups effectively ===
* tagging
* linking accounts
