FIRST Meme
I'm wondering if we could get FIRST more "on the map" and help spread the word of FIRST by having a concerted effort on KickOff Day to generate some social media buzz around the NASA telecast. Looking at Twitter, for example, the top "Tweet" at this moment in time has 746 tweets. I'm assuming FIRST will be putting out a tweet on kick off day, and if we had, say 1000 (or many more) retweets of it, we'd be on or close to the top.
Similarly, if a bunch of us all Googled/ASKed/BINGed "What is FIRST" or something similar on kickoff morning, we potentially could get a meme started. And, if enough of us changed our Facebook status on the morning of Kickoff to "watching the NASA Telecast of the FIRST Robotics Challenge" or something similar/better, it might register...
If this were to work, we'd have to have enough people on enough teams all encouraging every one of their teammates to participate in order to get the numbers needed to make something happen. Could be interesting! After all, we made Barbie a computer engineer!
