Well, isn't Facebook so two years ago? :-) As for state mailing lists, that seems a little unnecessary. I am new to the list so I may be wrong, but this seems to be a list with reasonable volume. And, even though I am in California and am not going to get excited about, for example, road types in Kansas, it is not a problem to be aware of the discussion. To me, the mailing list is a useful adjunct to my other sources of connection, those being the user diaries and the occasional meet-up (which we have a lot of in SF, so YMMV).
