Was clicking an end unto itself? Do our Facebook groups -- which are today often treated as the official barometer for a cause's importance; more members must signify more gravitas -- ever translate into significant change? (And if not, what are we doing there?) |
| I admit to having joined one or two, in the beginning, but no longer. Unless there's actually something behind the group, I see little point.

Unless the group holds regular events and makes good use of the event calendar I find it easy to lose track. The trend at FB seems to be moving away from Groups toward Fan Pages. Somehow this comes across as even less participatory to me.
