Arrow British Consulate on Facebook

We're experimenting with ways to "reach out" to the British community overseas at the moment, and we've set up a Facebook page "British Consulate Orlando" to test the waters. If any of you have Facebook accounts, why not swing by our page and let me know what you think. Is there anything else you would like to see added? How about becoming one of our "fans"?

Many thanks.

Dean

If the Facebook page proves to be popular, you could very well see a local one popping up....

That'll be handy...so who do you have to nudge to get one going? The Boston one could do with getting out and about abit.

Not bad in getting over 1K friends to Orlando already though

Just another avenue to pass out information? People spend a lot of time on FB and it costs nothing really, so why not...

At least it's not twitter

Actually you'd be surprised by the useful info you pick up on Twitter. Even the Foreign Office tweets
