Facebook is the place to be if you want to boost your advocacy efforts and build a network of supporters.

Yesterday, the League and the Alliance for Biking & Walking hosted the first in a series of webinars focused on using social media as a way to connect with your communities and bolster your campaigns. First up: Facebook 101.

We defined the basics -- what is a "share" vs. a "like"? -- and we also looked into more complex ways to build your network (creating image memes, for example). We also had a great Q&A session, so thanks to all of you who tuned in live!

Here are all of the slides [PDF], which you can feel free to use and share. Below is the video recording of the webinar. If you missed it, take a look!
