+:*'''What's the benefit of joining Skype vs. Facebook groups?'''
+::Both will be places where you can go to collaborate with other researchers. You may prefer one or the other simply because you already use one tool or the other. Other benefits to each are:
+::*Facebook is a leading social media website. You can join a group on Facebook and just visit the website when you wish. Or, if you'd like to be more involved, you can even sign up to receive a text message when something is posted to the page.

It also allows for sending documents that others can review to help with evaluating records and, if desired, live video discussions or screen sharing.
