I've never seen the draw in groups.  On Facebook you don't get
notifications (either through email or in your main feed) from groups. 
There is already an Ubuntu-AU group on Facebook, and i wouldn't have a
clue what's on it, because i couldn't be bothered visiting it every time
i want news.  (Same goes for visiting web sites vs. subscribing to their
feeds - give me a feed any day of the week.)  On identi.ca, hash tags
seem to work just as well as groups.  Does Twitter even have groups? 
Lists seem to be a rough equivalent, but they aren't opt-in by the user:
anyone else can put you on them.

An account for ubuntu-au that people can friend/like/follow makes more
sense to me.
