I am not sure if Facebook is the way to go. Probably worth a shot, but I think that at least in part. Some people still remember having to deal with Ada as an early language through their university track. That alone probably leaves something of a bad taste.
The problem is as I see it, most of the resources that you find with Ada seem to be outdated. Which may not be the case, just may not need any updates. So what would be the point of having a Facebook page directing people to a community which perhaps requires a little more than most to dig in to gain an understanding.
The recipe is just about the same for anything else that you're selling. So you need an easy barrier to entry, Ada doesnt have that, so it better be worth it. IMO it is. Need some killer software available that make people say 'oh I didn't know Ada could do THAT!'
We need some voices in the community that are larger than life.
Am I alone in thinking that the ada2012.com site which looks pretty smoking is using apache as the front end web server?
