No doubt. I was on Facebook before Vanagon pages, and while those pages are entertaining, I don't believe anything can replace the list or samba (even if I dislike the patronizing attitude much of the samba has assumed over the years). If Facebook became a paid service and dropped all pretenses of it being "free", then I could see utilizing it more, but that's a topic for a few days from now. ;) Personally, if I need a real, straight-forward vanagon-related answer, I'll come here.
