Facebook Application Lists MS Walk/Bike Events

I recently received this email about a new Facebook application that helps readers find MS walking and biking events. It is for current Facebook users, although starting an account is very simple. Fellow MS bloggers as well as MS communities can be found on Facebook.

Jen –

My name is Brian Reid and – in the interest of full disclosure – I work with Serono on their MS LifeLines program. Last week, they launched a Facebook application that is designed to help people find National Multiple Sclerosis Society-sponsored walks and bike rides and connect with others who are also participating. There’s no commercial subtext here – the intent is to raise awareness.

The application is online here: http://apps.facebook.com/mschampions.

I know that you’re already involved in an event, and we want to make it as easy as possible for everyone who participates (or who wants to participate) to plug into the community, so anything you can do to share with your readers would be appreciated.

Thanks for the great blogging,

Brian Reid

  • It’s kinda interesting. I don’t get these type of emails from marketing departments anymore. Even the ones which do not have a direct commercial agenda. I’m falling off the grid apparently.

    What I find strange is that I AM on Facebook and I have this website, but both are pretty independent of one another. Coincidence? So many people on Facebook now that it would be highly likely that this email might interest me? It’s a mystery.

    Anyhoo….
