Facebook is one tool of many. The audience of any effort is the Board of Regents and a generation that aren't typically plugged into Facebook or Twitter.

While we're using Facebook and Twitter, additionally, to put it bluntly, I don't want to put all our baskets into using a proprietary system that could change at a company's whim.

I'll get fb integration onto the site, just haven't yet. The original effort was partly on Facebook too (that original group was deleted at some point when Facebook discontinued the original Groups).

All platforms must be used--web, Facebook, Twitter, offline mediums. The beauty of the current technologies is that it doesn't have to be all or nothing. They all work together nicely.
