Facebook Page

[Phill Whiteside]

There are times I also hate some of social media.

I'm pretty adamant that social media is used *ONLY* to reach more people
and that requests for support are directed to the existing channels that
they can be of use. Even at this early stage, the new QA facebook page had
a support request [1]

What that request had to do with QA.. pass. but, as long as the requester
was given information as to where to head I do not think it does harm.

Regards,

Phill.
