Jason from the Blog Business Summit has put together a list of some of the top Facebook Groups. Here’s how Jason described the group:

“Web Strategy Group – One of the more active-minded groups on Facebook, it is dedicated to sharing ideas on web strategy with other smart, web-savvy people.”

Web Managers and Decision Makers are connecting
Just four days ago, (over a dozen posts ago) I promoted the group from this blog. At the time, there were 468 members in the group. Today, there are 691 folks, and that’s 47% growth in just a few days.

Top discussions in the group:

What’s your methodology for understanding User Needs?

What’s your official Title? What makes you a Web Strategist?

What comes first? determining the priority of your website

How do you work collaboratively with your stakeholders?

Why do I encourage this group? I’m glad to see the web strategy community come together, grow, and learn from our peers. There’s many different tools to use, as a blog is like a ‘keynote speech’, but a community group is more like a ’social mixer’ where everyone is one equal ground. So get in and join, learn, ask questions and grow!

Thanks for pointing to the list!

By the nature of my post I'm forced to be brief in describing each group, but having spent the past few days really scouring Facebook for the better ones, it's easy to say that Web Strategy Group really stands out - the discussions are moving, people are active, and I think the fact that you're actively moderating it really makes a positive difference.

I definitely recommend the group. Good work!

There's a general need to serve and connect the web manager role. There's already so many groups for developers, designers, and engineers!

I think the secret to success for this group is in a combination of both: a genuine interest in the subject and Jeremiah's commitment to carry his passion (web strategy) through, even at the expense of 24/7 blogging, twittering and what'the'next communication vehicle-ing. This man never sleeps and definitely outblogs anyone.
