[governance] IGC on Facebook?

[Deirdre Williams]

I have been wondering about noise as well.
Communication seems to me to work more efficiently, in terms of "these are
the issues", as information emanating from a known and/or trusted
individual. Rather than one large "IGC" campaign, individual initiatives by
IGC members, who use Facebook and other such services, to spread information
about the issues of Internet Governance might have more real effect. And
this would also serve to break the language difficulties to a great extent.
But one never knows how things will work until the experiment is complete -
so all power to Izumi for experimenting.
