I just completed the Facebook module for 23 things. I did the first exercise since I already have a personal facebook account. I decided to search for a library in Las Vegas, Nevada because I have always wanted to live there. I liked the Las Vegas-Clark County Library District Page. It was well put together, had the most people who "liked" them of the library pages in Las Vegas I saw and was overall a good page.
I think facebook is a good thing for people to have because it lets you connect with people you may not see as much as you would like. It can also connect you with people you have lost touch with over the years such as family who are out of state, old classmates or old friends who have drifted away. I have found people on facebook and reconnected with people on facebook and think it is great thing,
I think it is a positive thing for libraries to have facebook pages so people can see what is going on with the library. Some people don't come into the library often, but still want to know what events are happening and having a facebook page can help them keep up to date on events that may be happening. One bad thing about it is that if someone likes the page they may be bombarded with updates from the library if the person running the page is too much into it. If they are posting an update every hour it can get annoying.
