We have 9 more days to go for CFP closure and I am not very happy with the number and diversity of talks we have got so far. Can we agree to run a twitter campaign of " 'n' more days to go, are you not talking in Pycon India 2011 ?' kind of twitter campaign ? For example, today it would be 'Only 9 more days to go, Are you not talking in Pycon India 2011 ?' like that.. Thoughts ? -- --Anand
I agree. Anything to get more publicity. Anyone here on facebook, google+ etc. That can help on those fronts? On 7/2/11, Anand Balachandran Pillai <abpillai@gmail.com> wrote:

Is it upto date? [...] -- ~noufal http://nibrahim.net.in Evil isn't all bad.
Sure .. though a countdown could perhaps end up leading to giving an impression (completely independent of any facts on the ground) that we are facing a dearth of talk proposals. I would imagine if we can attempt to tweet at least one reference to #PyconIndia and the talk proposals a day, that might be a little better. Of course adding to FB / Google+ as relevant would also be helpful. On Sat, Jul 2, 2011 at 12:35 PM, Noufal Ibrahim <noufal@gmail.com> wrote:

Frankly, I don't care much about impressions right now. I would rather have 50 talks to pick from on 23:59 hrs on July 10, rather than worrying about how I do it.

Just wanted to let people know: I am aware of at least 4 proposals in non-standard areas (python in bioinformatics, bio-tech, mathematics) that are being readied to be submitted later in the week...

Navin, that is great news! I just saw a submission from you as well. Thanks for spreading the awareness.
