IGDA Site Frustration - Please join on facebook

As many of you have seen in the past several days, managing changes to events via the IGDA website is a nontrivial challenge. What you didn't see was that each time I needed to make a change on the group home, I actually had to create a new event and cancel the old event since changing the date or time caused the SQL query to time out. As such, I'd like us to try and move to the facebook site, in the footsteps of the global organization. Please join the DC Metro chapter here:

and the Global Boat here:

You can also follow us on twitter:

Obviously the chapter page will remain, but I think it'll be easier to communicate with the group through more modern social media means.
