Groups are suggested to be a close circle of individuals that share as well as correspond on Facebook.
People often tend to develop them around things like:
- Topics
- Books (consider it like a book club).
- Their business (type of like an "insider's club").
- To sell items locally.

- Support groups.
There is no "Wrong" subject for a group IMHO. It all depends upon your:.
- Goals.

Messages/Chat- Among the terrific aspects of Groups is you can launch a group chat/message with either all members of a Group or select members.
This is especially beneficial when you have a statement to make or require to swiftly collaborate on an item/issue.
Events- A feature most likely not used frequently enough in Groups is Occasions. Inside the group you can develop events that only members can see & RSVP for.
Just click on the "Events" tab to the left and then "Develop Event" & the lightbox below will certainly pack to create your event.
Files- Inside groups you can share files of any kind in addition to create Files which group members can include in & Group up on.
