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, I am your number 7 "fan" Wow someone was busy putting it together. Love it..

I'm number 8 !! Really like the layout and the different sections.
Can't think of anything else right now that I'd like to see

Wow, Dean, beautiful page. A pat on the back for the person who put that up!

Indeed the person who put the effort into that page is to be congratulated.

Any chance of giving the other consulates a nudge? Be nice to see a Boston one...

Great idea!!! I was fan #32..... there's some good stuff on there.

I am your #6 fan!

Search on British Consulate there's one or two others...of course who knows if they're official

DC is there -http://www.facebook.com/ukinusa

Aye, plenty of consulates around, none for Boston...not to bothered about joining any others as they aren't local

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 out of interest - why?

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
