Online Communities question
First, I'll say that I think that Bigger Pockets is an awesome community. But let me ask everyone's thoughts on this question: Would you consider a private Facebook Group to be an "online community"? I came across two different life/business coaches recently and one other organization that advertised their "online community". As it turns out, once you pay to get in, all it really is is a private Facebook group. Now, the cost was not too much to get in ($50 a month or less), but there's just a friggin FB group. I'm a little older, so I was involved with some great online communities before FB was even born. The FB group thing, the format, structure, and content are just lousy compared to a true online community like BiggerPockets. What do y'all think? Is it just cause I'm not used to FB groups?
