I understand, and I know it isn't easy starting a new site. ;)

Re: Who are maemoexperts?
 

Maemoexperts, the name isn't THAT bad, but the main thing is this:

If you want a good reputation among Maemo users, you have to do something of your own. It's no good just passing on stuff from other people, you have to create something yourself which is of value to others.

Re: Who are maemoexperts?
 

I hopefully will contribute. Thanks again for the advice.

Re: Who are maemoexperts?
 

Maemoexperts, I've blocked your twitter account for the endless retweets and the spreading of false release dates. (And the usage of 3? twitter accounts to spread each tweet?)

I don't question that you got the info from your Nokia sources, but the tweets sounded like fixed information and promises. When those turn out to be mistaken, it creates a lot of confusion and anger.

Please think about the damage done with this over-enthusiastic approach.

Re: Who are maemoexperts?
 

I think I was being "over enthusiastic", and I'd say my main fault was listening to and believing Nokia, to that extent, If I have to carry some blame I also need them to carry some blame as well.

I got promised that the information was true and time again and again the goal posts would get shifted.

You live and learn.

Re: Who are maemoexperts?
 

I think what strikes me is that you may (or may not) eventually become experts at maemo. But you aren't very expert in your people skills.

You title yourself maemo-experts, without it occuring to you that the people who've been working with the OS, and shaping what it's become, might feel a bit miffed.

You register several twitter accounts and tweet when actually you don't yet have anything to say.

Your faith in the reliability of what Customer Service Operators say is positively touching in its naivity.

If your website is going to succeed (and I hope it does - the more Maemo the better) you will need not only a good quantity of real, hard information and opinion to offer, but also some understanding of the people who will be reading it.

Good luck. :)

maemoexperts just carry on doing what your doing now, 1060 followers on twitter in a couple of weeks says your doing something what people want to see already , so dont change your style on the opinion of a few acting like they know whats best. just differentiate between rumoured info and official/real info by stating so and readers will be happy
