    As Facebook has become so popular as a social networking site, I've created an associated group over there called "Yamaha XJ Owners".

    Everyone is welcome to join, and invite your other XJ friends!

    What is "facebook" and how is it different from this forum?

    have you heard of Myspace? if so its a lot like that... Facebook was origanally for just college students to get in touch with each other, then just this past year they opened it up to the public and its a way to stay in touch with everyone..

    Social Networking - all the rage with the young'un's right now. If you're not using it, nothing to worry about.

    I just happened to notice that there wasn't an XJ group for those who do use it, so thought I'd fix that!

    Search is not available now so I cannot find the group. I will check again later.

    Not a fan of groups that require registration to view any content. If I signed up for every place that "may" have some useful information in it then I would have twenty pages of passwords to remember.

    Unless it's browsable to the public in general then it's not worth the effort.

    Also means content in there is not available to search engines either.

    Kinda defeats the purpose really.

    In the top left there is a "Search" box. Type in Yamaha XJ Owners. That's how I found it.

    Considering there are already over 400 members, maybe your could add xjbikes.com to the group info :)

    I see lots of problem/parts types of questions already that might not get answer promptly or correctly.

    Nevermind its right there in front of my face - DUH

    EDIT: DIDN"T realize this was an OLD post... Still good to know the group is there.
