Facebook was just a suggestion because I use it myself for a lot of stuff.
 But something like the old Yahoo group system is what I'm looking for.

 Any suggestions?

I received several "forum emails" from Bjørn in march at least, probably some later as well. So this forum has the neccesary functions to get emails out to all members without you having to look up all the emails. Am I missing something here? Can't you just edit the profiles of those who needs a push so that you are certain they receive these emails?

Bjørn is such a dear when he's angry  ;D

 Anyway, between using that and my e-mail. My e-mail is quite adequate.

For what it's worth (not much) I think FB and yahoo are fine ALTERNATIVE methods of communication.  I agree with Jon that RL can sometimes be a real bitch, so having something else as a backup reminder that people can opt in (or opt out) of, is probably a good thing.

Try setting something up, make it clear it is only a backup form of notification, and let people choose to opt in, and allow them to opt out.  No harm, no foul.  Just my 2 cents.

I use Facebook once per week. I visit these Forums once per day. From my point of view there is no need for a FB group, but I guess we could try it and see what happens  ::)

Get people's phone number and give them a call. Or turn up at their door. The latter is probably more effective, but Skype is a lot cheaper than even Ryanair can manage.

Ryanair.  Sending a grumpy Even would be kinda amusing...

Do you think Ryanair would sponsor Even's housecalls if we started advertising for them?

I'm on facebook, I rarely check it as I'm on for work reasons only, but it mails me if someone sends me a message.

I try to check the forum every evening though, so beyond minor details like getting the day/week/month wrong every now and then should get my DO in on time.
