And if you start using facebook for updates and news, I would like to follow the pool on twitter. Maybe it is possible to open an account there as well. Just a wish

Not everyone has (or wants, or is going to set up) Facebook and/or Twitter accounts.
The main source of news for the pool should
always be either [1] the pool website itself; or [2] this forum. Sure, FB and Ttr info can be added as a secondary source, but should never marginalize the main ones.
