Worthwhile Glass Groups on Facebook

Post by Lynn Perry »

Since I have been banned from Fused Glass Fanatics without ever actually being accepted in the group, I was wondering what other glass related groups on Facebook other people like. Thanks.

I don't spend much glassie time on facebook outside my friend list, which is pretty extensive. I look at Glass Artists Exchange on Facebook. It is just a group where people post pictures.

Stephen R. has Fusing Q&A and Paul Tarlow has a Fusedglass.org FB group.

Traffic is MUCH lower in these groups and more manageable. There's not much dialog going on Fusing Q&A, and I'm afraid some of the stuff in Paul's group is similar to the Fanatics. Fewer people though, and hopefully, the numbers stay down and it doesn't go in that same direction.

The guy who started "Non PC Fused Glass..." also has "Pattern Bar Slices." He suffered a similar fate - he was booted from Fused Glass Fanatics for knowing too much, and being silly enough to share what he knew. "Pattern Bar..." also has not as much traffic, and some interesting glass.
