A little while ago, I created the Mindful Construct Facebook Fanpage.
Why?
Several reasons:
- I’m already on Facebook, and know how it’s a more “personal” social networking platform. I would like to connect more personally with Mindful Construct readers. (I don’t usually connect with people I don’t know, so if you send me a friend request, mention you’ve read the blog!)
- I’ve seen readers sharing articles they like on Facebook, and might as well provide an opportunity for further discussion on that very platform.
- Facebook is HUGE, it’s a great way to reach more readers and expand on the topics.
- I enjoy being a fan of other pages, and have seen some great organizations create community in some interesting ways. I want to create those same opportunities for the Mindful Construct community.
- I try to keep my personal commentary on articles confined to the comments, and really, only when asked. Because I like for articles to be as accessible as they can. The Fanpage provides an easy way to include more personal commentary through things like the wall, discussions, and messages.
- It’s also really easy to the use the Fanpage to ask for direct reader feedback
So if you’re already on Facebook, I’d love to see you there!
