New Facebook Group

Hi all,

Facebook is the place to be! Or so it would seem. Since the demise of the folklore forum I found out where a'body was - on FB.

So I've joined the Social Network Revolution - firstly have set up an oral history/reminiscence group. I'll do a folklore one later. But for now, the Aberdeen & Region Oral History Association presents the first Facebook Oral History Group - obviously you need to be registered for Facebook to join.

Do please join up, I know alot of you folkie ppl are on FB. Oral reminiscence is the backbone of folklore, so we need to make sure it's recognised as a proper source by traditional historians.

And don't forget the Oral History Society's conference at Strathclyde Uni, Glasgow in 3 wks time 3-4 July, 2009: See link

also - Voices in Visual Art (VIVA) is an on-going oral history project based in London College of Arts.
