Facebooking Bloomfield Neighborhoods

Before Facebook, the main way for residents to find out what's going on in town was to go buy one of the weekly newspapers or go to a Council meeting. In the last few months. several new Facebook have caught fire by giving residents an interactive tool to keep up with the lastest issues facing their neighborhood on many levels.

 Citizens of Bloomfield is the largest group with several hundred followers. It covers the entire town with an emphasis on downtown redevelopment progress. htthttps://www.facebook.com/groups/29160983427892ps://www.facebook.com/groups/291609834278926
