[Chapter-delegates] facebook

[Narelle Clark]

I'm just starting to wonder how far this goes?

We've got a linkedin group, now a facebook, what about myspace, bebo...

Don't get  me wrong, I think ISOC should have an extremely strong online
presence, and be cultivating the next generation of participants, I'm
just wondering about the usefulness of these things for *our* purpose.

Eg facebook was essentially an online 'yearbook' similar to that which I
understand many USAmerican high schools publish for school leavers.

Does that type of forum really suit our needs?

Is there another type of forum that is needed more? Maybe an
'association' oriented system???

Now *that's an idea*. Any takers?
