Today participants in the web sessions of the annual synod communicators' workshop heard and discussed some thoughts on using Facebook in communicating to members and the public. Besides being assured by the Geek Girls that it was possible to create a page on Facebook (a for your organization, not the same as a user profile and preferable to groups for this use) without connecting your fans to your personal profile, participants were encouraged to use the web (including Facebook) to create relationships.

For some ideas of ideas to create conversations, and therefore relationships, online, check out the ELCA's Facebook page (you don't have to be on Facebook to see that link).
