There's been some discussion among Appropedia about using Facebook for networking. Whether or not it turns out to be useful, there are some precautions to take, in terms of privacy, and the time-consuming nature of Facebook, and in terms of using it for networking.

See:

  • Networking:
    • Appropedia has been added to "causes"
    • If you want to find likeminded people, that might be possible. (However, it's unclear whether valuable connections, in terms of people to work with, can come from Facebook. You can't view strangers' profiles by default. However, if you see someone (e.g. on a "Cause" page) that you might want to connect with, "poke" them, then they can view your profile for a week; if they poke back, you can view yours. Presumably you can then message and add as friends.[verification needed])
