Don't forget to post the Allentown Diocese page on facebook, we have one of the largest (arch)diocesan followings on facebook pages: http://www.facebook.com/allentown.diocese
Added!
I might develop a page that looks up page fan counts for all the dioceses, so we can see a little more data about all these dioceses... http://kovshenin.com/archives/how-to-count-facebook-fans-in-php/

Hmm...that Allentown FB link in the comment above didn't work for me.
I used the correct link when posting at the top of this page - for some reason, their vanity URL doesn't work properly.

There's been some discussion in regard to which is "safer" for a youth group... A Facebook page, group, or regular profile? We had a page that I thought was fine, but then one of the admins decided to switch it to a profile instead because we have pictures on it. I see pictures on the Diocesan FB pages above, though. Thoughts?
New Media for the New Evangelization!
I think a group, with good privacy settings, would be better for youth. Also, remember that it is not illegal to post pictures with youth in them—sometimes it's inadvisable, but I know, for instance, that St. Louis' Catholic newspaper is able to publish names of children along with their photographs, since it's a journalistic publication...
