How can we get the word out and grow the sister boards as our new coldplaying community?

01) Has there been a facebook page created for the board yet?

If not we should create one and send friend requests to everyone who is a friend of other Coldplay fan pages...

02) A similar meathod could be used on twitter...

03) Also if anyone has a youtube profile then maybe they would not mind posting messages on Coldplay videos telling people about the work we are doing here to rebuild.

04) If anyone is a member of another board / community that may have coldplay fans on it - Muse, Keane, and so on - perhaps you can make a post in the world of music section regarding this board.

05) We also need to find a way to get all of the guests to join - and even if they don't want to - at least ask them to inform any other coldplayers they might know personally that we are here. Comicforce would you be willing to make a post requesting this as the board owner?

What else can we do - any ideas or suggestions?

LP6 is on its way and I know we would all love to have as many people to talk to it about as possible.

There are a lot of our brothers and sisters out there still - let's go find them!

I can handle the Facebook page if you guys like. I try to friend every Coldplayer I meet on fb. And I admin a few groups/pages and can ask other group/page admin to share. Row?

I think our initial goal should be to have 200 members by March 1st... We could do that!

There are still lots of Coldplayers looking for a home.

Now is the time to spread the word. Once the GS comes out this place will be like a crowded pub with a roaring fire that never goes out. What's the FB page called?

I'm on YouTube all the time, I could handle posting messages on videos and what not. What exactly would you like me to say? Also Trace, could you tell me the pages & groups you're apart of on Facebook, if you don't mind me liking/joining them too.

I'm only an admin for the Jonny Buckland group and the Buckin Love page, but there's a Coldplay UK group as well as two unofficial groups. Are you friends with me on facebook? If you add me I'll add you to as many as I can remember.

I've mentioned it on Coldplaying a couple of times, but of course I don't want to seem pushy about it, so I haven't really promoted it there a lot.

Ok, thank you! Can I message you the link to my profile then so you can add me as a friend?
EDIT: I just sent you a message & a friend request, and liked the Buckin Love page.
