Please take a moment to "like" the facebook page for the National Coalition for Dialogue & Deliberation at http//www.facebook.com/ncddpage if you haven't already. Facebook is phasing out its groups that use the old groups format, and that includes the NCDD group! This breaks my heart a little, because we have built up a group over the past few years with nearly 2,300 members (very big for our field!), and have used the group to host all kinds of discussions, events, photos, etc. Facebook isn't revealing much, but they are saying that after the group is "archived," the members of your old group will "not be available." Yikes! I wanted to alert everyone right away because there's no indication of when the group will be "archived." A few months ago I created a Facebook PAGE for NCDD, since pages do have more functionality overall, and I encourage all of you to take a second to "like" the page at http//www.facebook.com/ncddpage so we can keep in touch. I'm sure we will build up the page with great discussions, upcoming regional events, photos, news from you guys, and more. For now, the page is a very useful resource in and of itself because I've been using it to follow dozens of our members' blogs on dialogue, deliberation, and public engagement. So there's good stuff there -- just not much interaction or many fans (yet). Thanks for being part of the NCDD Facebook group over the years, and hope to see you on the NCDD page!
