One Million Community Builders Facebook Group
I'm experimenting on ways to pull people from the "private life" dominated Facebook experience into "public life" exchange. Check it out from: http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=121232780528 Have others here researched how people actually *use* Facebook groups? Why some groups take off and grow and other serve as virtual lapel pins? My sense is that with limited functionality and no notification/e-mail alert option, they are mostly pseudo-petitions.

Hahaha. I love your "virtual lapel pins" expression. I get the occasional emails from my groups but am spending way too much time on facebook as it is so am kind of glad I don't get alerted everytime there is an update. Think my more active groups are local church and campus groups which do a lot of event postings and my conference volunteer groups which have a lot of questions about needing roommates or travel information or whatever but which are only active until the conference actually happens.
