They said ... i.e. tweeted "Let's go!"

Greetings to brabezhiteley! I want to tell about an interesting idea, which will soon be realized in the territory that truly unites Kazakhstan and Russia - the Baikonur cosmodrome.

On the night of July 15-16, 2011, the first twitter broadcast of the launch of the KazSat-2 satellite from the Baikonur cosmodrome will take place. The initiative to hold such an event went from the Prime Minister of Kazakhstan Karim Massimov ( @KarimMassimov ). The launch of "KazSat-2" is important, because I really want to feel the whole country, as babakhnet and take off! it will be used to provide television broadcasting, data transmission in the satellite communications system KazSat in Kazakhstan and Russia.


Broadcast will be:
')

• Alisher Elikbaev ( @yelikbayev ) - blogger, journalist, owner of the voxpopuli.kz photo report site
• Baghlan Aidashov ( @sympaticus ) - blogger, independent financial analyst
• Dina Kubaizhanova ( @dinakuba ) - blogger, marketing expert of all Kazakhtelecom JSC.
• The photographer for the Proton-M launch will be Damir Otegen.

I think this is the first launch of the satellite, which will be covered via Twitter. I personally welcome this undertaking, as I have recently been receiving more and more information from there and I would not like to miss interesting events. All the more so good.

The broadcast will be carried out through the twitter of Prime Minister of Kazakhstan Karim Masimov, who has the highest “readability” among Kazakhstan users of the microblogging service - about 8,000 people. All the impressions of the launch of the Proton-M launch vehicle (just don’t say that you didn’t dream to see it personally in childhood) - on your screens.

"Let's go" with us!

Twitter broadcast is “open” - any user of social networks and blogs will be able to freely read the news from the satellite launch, chat with other bloggers and exchange views. Interesting comments with the hashtag # kzs2 will fall into the news feed, which will also be broadcast on the website of the Prime Minister of Kazakhstan, Karim Masimov.

The official countdown to the event is held on the Prime Minister's website - http://pm.kz/kzs2/ . This resource is also responsible for the live broadcast from the scene. Do not miss the live broadcast launch!
