[Bug 942046] Re: Hide Twitter stream for non-English slideshows

[Dylan McCall]

You might be mixing up how it was a little earlier with what it's doing
now :)

Originally, it was doing a search for #ubuntu. That gave us a really cool, wide range of tweets from all sorts of people. Unfortunately, the lack of moderation was really worrying, so that was replaced with a list of accounts that aren't likely to troll people. That list is managed over here: https://twitter.com/#!/hello_ubuntu/installer-slideshow
(One of those accounts is an account that retweets stuff, so when everything is live it'll look a little more exciting).

I hope to see it happen, but getting a diverse language selection inside
that framework is going to be something of an operation.
