New Kitchener-Waterloo Entrepreneurs Google Group

I recently created the Kitchener-Waterloo Entrepreneurs Google Group to foster communication between members of the Group.  So far, it's just myself in the group.  I've put a discussion posting about the group on LinkedIn Group to see what people think about the idea. 

Will it foster more communication?  Are more face-to-face meetings required for people to communicate more in the group?  So far, I've had some interesting responses.

Some people say that the LinkedIn Group is quite adequate and that we should not be fragmenting the Entrepreneurial discussion outside the LinkedIn Group.  I can't help but feel, though, that the ease of group member posting on the Google group, would really supercharge the group.  There is also a Kitchener-Waterloo Entrepreneurs Facebook Group but there is very little activity on it.

What do you think?  The new Google Group is at http://www.google.com/group/kitchener-waterloo-entrepreneurs
