I am not sure if the facebook page really ever got up and running. There was talk back a few pages that some people had difficulty accessing it. Personally I am not a FB'er so I am probably not the best one to ask.
While Facebook might be very easy on your phone, there are apps to make using this forum easier.... I know there is an iphone version, pretty sure there is one for android too. That might make visiting here easier from your phone.
I think I speak for everyone when I say that we would hope that, even if you do choose to primarily use FB to connect to people on the cruise, you would still frequent this forum. For many of us this is where we will focus on the meet up. This is especially true for the FE news and info.
