Half a billion people. That's the number who use Facebook. Whether you like Facebook or hate it, ignoring it is dumb. Clearly not everyone on Facebook is going to be interested in amphibians, but imagine what we could do for awareness and amphibian conservation if 1% of Facebook users saw the information on this page - that's 5 million people.
The nice thing about Facebook pages (which I've been using a lot for education purposes recently, e.g. MicrobiologyBytes), is that they don't reveal personal information about users (you don't have to become anyone's "friend") and they are easy to use. Once you've clicked the Like button on the page, news just pops up on your Facebook wall every time you visit the site.
If you spend far too much time on Facebook, give it a try: Frogroom on Facebook
