Hello everyone,
Well it had to happen! At the request of our new club president, The Rotary Club of Hawthorn has joined the 21st century and now has its own Facebook page.
It can be accessed using the following link: https://www.facebook.com/#!/HawthornRotary
The facebook page will initially be used to convey information and not as a chat site.
The aim is to get our message out there so that people can search us and read about what is happening within the club. Basically in the short term our weekly bulletin articles will be reposted along with other relevant stories. As I get organised I will try to add Rotary International items etc however this is a work in progress so please bear with me as I start to add things on. I am also open to ideas and suggestions for content.
If you have a facebook account please log onto our new page and hit the "Like Button", encourage your friends and other Rotarians to also "Like" our page.
Regards Norman Hall

-Facebook
Social Media Facebook is a social networking service and website launched in February 2004, owned and operated by Facebook, Inc. Facebook has over 900 million active users, more than half of them using Facebook on a mobile device. Users must register before using the site, after which they may create a personal profile, add other users as friends, and exchange messages, including automatic notifications when they update their profile. Additionally, users may join common-interest user groups, organized by workplace, school or college, or other characteristics, and categorize their friends into lists such as "People From Work" or "Close Friends". The name of the service stems from the colloquial name for the book given to students at the start of the academic year by some university administrations in the United States to help students get to know each other.
