KFTC Facebook Page Hits 5,000 Members

Kentuckians For The Commonwealth is continuing to use the social networking site Facebook to better keep in touch with our members and friends, encourage action, and to connect with new people.

We've actively used a Facebook Group since early 2007, but it became too big to use because of Facebook's limitations on mass messages to especially large groups.  It has over 7,500 members now.

We started to test out a new system through Facebook called a "Page" earlier this year - something we thought would be better for communicating with large numbers of people while encouraging lots of conversation and exchanges. 

Incredibly, our Facebook Page has grown by leaps and bounds over the last 3 weeks, going from 1,300 members to over 5,000 members as of today.

But what's more exciting is the conversations our blog posts (which are automatically re-posted on Facebook) are touching off, creating a space for people to learn from one-another and debate issues.

If you're on Facebook, please check out our page and invite your friends to join as well.
