We're all pretty good at monitoring ourselves, I think.

And though I'm not overly fond of FB it does have its purposes; promotion is one thing. It was a good way to promote ATP from the beginning. It's a great way to promote Ideas, the Database and other things like that including the monthly week's focus on a specific plant.

I think if we have the positive tools that social media has, (and tagging is one of them if used properly) there's nothing wrong with that. Yesterday in another thread @dave said this:

The more people join ATP and bring their experience, knowledge and willingness to share with them, the better it gets. I think ATP is a great site and an excellent reboot on the "social media for gardeners" idea and we've grown a tremendous amount in the last two years.

Very well said, I think, and pretty well states where we are in the great scheme of things.
