In an effort to improve communication at work I got the idea to create a a "secret group" forum for our organization on Facebook. We have 3 spread out locations now and communication has become rather sucky as we've often failed at logistics between the locations.
The good thing is, everyone is on Facebook, and they all check it regularly on their computers and mobile phones. So we're going to Poke The Box, as Seth puts it, and try this out for a while and see if things improve. I am a little worried employees might waste time messing around on Facebook, but I trust that everyone is responsible enough to handle it - we've got a "No Cogs" culture going on. I'm certainly excited to see how this will work and what we're going to learn from it.

Thanks Danny, I'll be sure to post some updates again really soon. So far it's been really cool to see all the conversations going on between everybody. Even after using it one day, there is much less communication redundancy. Saves a lot of time and energy.
