    the suspicion is that facebook pulled the plug on it because it was deemed as advertising, and as such was in breech of their Ts & Cs

    If it has been pulled, it's a disgrace - have you seen how many entries there are on Facebook for Dermot O'Leary?! Shameless promotion if ever I saw it!

    Any chance of a group popping up on Bebo? I've only just about got the hang of that and got most of my friends on there... so I don't want to set up another account to help me waste my time when I should be studying! :money:

    Cheers!

    :beer:

    Seconded - start a BEBO group too please!?!

    And for Chris Moyles! He even admits it's advertising on his page. :mad:

    If anyone wants to add me - PM me for my name. I'm now up to 3 friends, and one of those is Martin. :o

    Just a quick note about Facebook.
    A person can have a maximum of 5000 friends
    A group cannot send messages to all it's members once it is over 1000 people in size.

    I have been creating facebook apps for a while now and you start to realise that the only way of staying in touch with a large group of people is a profile box as part of a facebook application.

    It could work quite well actually. The application shows all the latest tips and the profile box shows the links to them, updated every day.

    Might do this unofficially if its a no from MSE towers?
