+1 to SH. Some of us will never be FB users, it wouldn't take much to post events here also. Give those of us not on FB opportunity to camp with fellow Podders.

Travis and I try to cross post at least some of it.. (ERU, Goshen, and Minimini, granted, these are rallies we either always, or most of the time attend or host)

BUT, for instance, right now, in the FB group "events" section, there are more than a dozen hosted events, a quick look shows me, NONE of those hosts are members here.. So for "someone" to cross post all the event/reservation/news from more than a dozen rally pages, would in fact, be "much" to do for that someone..

It has been mentioned "over there" several times, that this forum is here, and that there are people who would like to know about the rallies and meet ups.. (probably comes up close to weekly) BUT.. among other things, most rallies over there fill in hours to days, so in their mind, why bother? no one over here they know or interact with.

Believe it or not FB isn't any more evil then any other part of the internet. I know podders who only use FB for that one thing/page. Sure the same questions come up pretty often, and the search function doesn't work as well as a regular forum build.. But you skip over the questions/discussions you don't want to be a part of, and help where you do.. just like here. The difference of course being there are literally a thousand posts a day over there.

Heck, I am still a member of one of the oldest "newsgroups" on the web, a great, but nearly unusable as compared to modern functionality, university hosted tandem bicycle group. The group went live in '95... I feel the pain. But.. it is what it is.

I'm with mcarter on this. Just say no to FB! I can get what I need here, and it doesn't take a large amount of time out of my life. Go for quality instead of quantity!
