If you ask me, and no one did, as long as there are clearly defined roles for each platform it would be a good thing. I would love a place I can ask Maryland birding questions and interact with other Maryland birders without an email landing in EVERYONE's inbox. Facebook for non-urgent bird related conversation. Google Group for all birding observations time sensitive material. And number one rule would be No Bird Reports / Observations on Facebook. That way Facebook becomes a voluntary community and at the same time those who do not wish to join Facebook do not miss any bird reports.
