We're on Facebook!

Recently we joined Facebook, a social networking site on the internet.  To find us, click on the following link: San_Joaquin_Valley_Viticulture. Our pages are public, so you may visit them and view all of the content, without subscribing to Facebook.  

When you first visit our site you’ll notice several tabs near the top center portion of the page.  Currently, the tabs are labeled “Wall”, “Info”, “Photos”, “Boxes”, and “Notes”.  Wall is the default page, and here you will find a list of short messages and updates, including weekly powdery mildew reports.  The wall is interactive, and Facebook members can comment on our messages, or add their own.  Many of these messages are simultaneously sent via Twitter, and you can receive them that way if you prefer (http://twitter.com/grapetweets).  The next tab, labeled “info”, only has the address to the KearneyAgriculturalCenter, so it is not particularly informative.  If you click on the tab labeled “Photos”, you will see several folders containing pictures of research projects or lab staff, most of which have informative captions.  We will continue to add new pictures as we make our way through the season.  The tab labeled “Boxes” is worth clicking on, as it will take you to a page with lots of content, including links to other useful websites, event notices, recent articles from our blog, and abstracts of selected research publications. The “notes” tab will be used for links to viticulture meetings which we are not the host of.  If you have such a meeting, send us the link and we’ll post it.  We hope you’ll soon visit us on Facebook and let us know what you think of this project.
