For a while now facebook has been announcing its new Group features that is going to add a whole new set of functionality to the site. The biggest new feature is the Group Chat which is exactly what it sounds like. Now people of the same group can chat with each other simultaneously. Until this is added the only form of group communication that people can share are posting to a groups wall. Other features include new security settings which allow you 3 levels of privacy ( Open, Closed, and Secret) and another feature (if I read this correctly) allows a postable doc file which is editable and updatable by any member.
Everyone could always share information to each other, but in a very static way through the posting of information. Now that we will be able to talk live with groups of people through the largest online community on the earth a whole new group of users may begin to show themselves on facebook. Online facebook meetings with the your coworkers? maybe.
