I'm not a facebook person. I manage to login if I get a notification of a message or maybe once a week for a few minutes to browse. That's a good part of the reason the facebook Car-Seat.Org group has languished. I know many of our members enjoy facebook, so perhaps it would be a nice place for some of you to promote child passenger safety there as well?
If so, maybe one or more facebook group experts would like to help run it and I'd be interested in making some changes there. Not just in responding to questions, but to give it a facelift in appearance and promote it on facebook as well. Please reply here if you are interested. It's an open group, so anyone may participate and invite/approve others to join. All I ask is that you keep it on-topic of traffic safety, rather than a community discussion area for off-topic conversations. Also, you would need to maintain a polite atmosphere to welcome parents to ask questions, as advocacy is the primary goal. The secondary goal is to promote our forum at Car-Seat.Org when relevant, especially by linking to relevant threads here. Obviously, the intent is to encourage participation on our forums, but we also want to be able to give parents another option to ask questions for all those people who rarely venture away from fb.
We also have an official facebook page that perhaps could use another moderator to spruce it up a bit and respond to questions. If you are interested, please send me a PM. Katy (MomtoElim), Andrea (Bookmama), Ulrike and Heather tend to most of the business, but someone else who is on facebook a lot and knows how to make spiffy page designs would be a big help;-)
