Another good way to gather referrences to sites you don't already know
about to get a Facebook page, accumulate likeminded friends then visit
their info pages browse everything in their links collections (their
submissions of links as posts to their wall or as notes), all the groups
or pages they like or subscribe to, their friends pages with same. There
are way more web links than there are FB pages or groups to be found
this way. Another is by visiting Google's Blogger blogs or Wordpress
blogs or any other blogs and scan their links and favorite or often
visited pages, often call their blogroll. There's an enormous harvest of
fun sites using this method. Google searches yield similar results.
Use Firefox or Chrome, install the addons that allow quick posting of
found sites or pages to your blog, FB page as posts. This is what I do
routinely. Blogger is one of the quickest and easiest tools for making a
blog and filling it with links, turning it into an RSS aggregator.
People subscribe to your RSS feed and receive all your new posts,
reading them with an RSS news client, Google or by subscribing their
blog to your blog have all your posts arrive in your area on their blog.
By building a blog containing RSS feeds of selected sites you
have an aggregator that people can subscribe to with RSS but, as in the
case of Wordpress and Blogger, much more.
