EcoModder has had a Facebook page for a long time, but it was never well used... and eventually abandoned. Turns out the admins of EM aren't heavy social media users.
(For more detailed discussion of where this is all coming from, see:
http://ecomodder.com/forum/showthrea...etc-26810.html )
At cbaber's and others' urging, we'd going to revive EM's Facebook presence, taking a crowdsourcing approach. So, we're looking for volunteers willing to act as editors/contributors for the page, to post occasional info/pics/links from the forum (and potentially interact with FB users).
THIS thread will be a place to keep track of who's interested, plus lay out suggestions for the kinds of things to post.
My suggestion is that info/pics/threads meant for general (offsite) consumption should be topics/projects that are somewhat "meta" -- things that will catch the attention of a wider audience (EG: Old Mechanic's DIY tadpole streamliner build), not stuff that's too specific (EG: troubleshooting lean burn on a Civic VX).
We already have a decent list of "meta" threads to use as source material -- these are the threads that Tim and I have been selecting to appear on EcoModder's home page. (Currently that list isn't paginated, but I'm planning to do that -- there are 137 threads in it right now, but only 20 or so show up on the page.)
Anybody else interested?

FB posting guidelines:
--- 3-4 posts to the timeline per week should be good. (That's 3-4 total, not 3-4 for each contributor!)
--- Posts made as "EcoModder" should be general (as opposed to personal) in nature. By that I mean, when you're logged in as EcoModder,
you're not you... you're a forum. To post/comment about a personal success/project, please post under your personal FB name.
--- When posting as "EcoModder", please use proper English (watch out for spelling & grammar).

(Ultimately we'll expand this idea to include EM's Twitter & YouTube channel as well, but we're starting with FB for now.)
