I agree with all your points. Facebook is invaluable for communicating with students. But you missed something. Facebook , Myspace and Youtube are also great sources of original content. Pluto, the University of Central Lancashire's student paper, has got three stories straight from Facebook. We used the pictures that were posted and two of the stories went national. Best Hi Dave,
