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.

Cheers,
Sudhir
