I actually like this site a lot - it's simple & practical and has the "what
is it?" info and latest news right at the top.  The categories work really
well and the story summaries layout is great.  It packs a lot in without
looking crowded.

Uniquely amongst chapter sites it actually lists all the members.

The only thing I'd question is the rather peculiar shade of blue.

A reverse feed from facebook is a novel idea. There's no direct rss AFAIK.
 I suspect it could be done via api somehow. Obviously fb like to keep
people in their environment because of ads etc. It's something that could be
looked into.
