If you want to follow Factom more closely we recommend following us on:
The above channels are were we are most active.
Let us not forget this post.
Nice. Case closed. I hadn't seen that ...

I would say FAR from case closed.  The blog has had only 15 entries in all of 2016, and half of these were routine announcements of 100K entries, 500K entries, release of versions 0.3.5/6/7, and announcements of hackathon events sponsored by Factom.  The blog entries and the Facebook entries are totally uncoordinated.  The YouTube videos (such as they are) get only around 400 views.  The twitter feed is ridiculous:  2 (yes, 2) tweets and 7 (yes, 7) followers.  

Factom is a huge organization ny Cryptocoin standards, listing 24 people on their team:

Huh.  They've even got somebody that is supposed to be doing "communications".

In my opinion, Factom has the absolute worst public relations of any cryptocoin I've ever seen.

They have poor public relations to users of the Factom open source protocol - such as factoid holders, but excellent PR for investors in Factom the Company and customers for Factom the company, who are also users of the open source protocol.  Some small improvements in communication with us wouldn't hurt but imo their resources are invested the right way round - in getting new customers and developing the technology.
