KUOW's Conversation gets a Facebook page, not a conversation yet (but they had one once)

I emailed KUOW Conversation this morning about their show on how the generations use technology. I made the not so original point that they should set up a blog for their show, and they ended up setting up a Facebook page.

I've tried to friend them, but I'm wondering what a Facebook page is going to do for them. In my experience, Facebook is one of the least transparent of the social networks. Great if you want to keep in touch with friends, not so much if you're trying to reach out.

I did find something really weird, that the Conversation did at one point have a blog. Its most recent post is this ominous one from about two years ago:

ConBlog temporarily down

The KUOW management is trying to decide whether they want staff members to do blogs.

So, I'm guessing the answer was no?
