TechFed: Top 10 best and worst UK Facebook accounts

In response to the notable success of the first real TechFed post, I give you its sequel.
As I said in my previous post, UK has strongly encouraged social activity among their departments and organizations.
And they have, in large part, been receptive. Especially on Facebook.
While Twitter may play host to 47 different official UK groups, Facebook has 72 of them.
And the statistics on Facebook are impressive compared to those of Twitter.
Accounting for all the official UK Facebook groups listed on the UK Social Media home page, which don’t include student groups like DanceBlue, UK has racked up more than 860,000 likes.
Of course, most of these likes come from UK Athletics (with more than half a million on its own) and the university’s main account, but even so, the smaller groups seem to be more successful than on Twitter.
If you want to see all the statistics on every Facebook group, you can download my Excel spreadsheet.
(The following statistics were gathered Feb. 1, 2012 at 1 p.m. The numbers may not be exactly accurate now, but do give a good approximation)
