XM Radio Mobile for BlackBerry on Facebook (but what about XM Radio?)

Last week, XM started a page for XM Radio Mobile for BlackBerry. It's a neat page, with some quick styling, you can check it out here.

Having a Facebook page is a simple and useful social media engagement tool. Afterall, when someone becomes a "fan" they don't just give you their name, or permission to contact them, but they're also giving you a rich visceral understanding of who they are. On top of that, they're announcing to all their friends that they love your service/product.

So what about regular ol' XM Radio?

I couldn't find a Facebook page for the bread 'n butter of XM. (If someone knows better than me, please let me know.) It seems odd to me that XMRM for BlackBerry would have a page, but not XM themselves. I don't want this to be a bash-fest, it's just surprising since XM has been quite cutting edge with their social media strategy. And considering how easy it is to setup a Facebook page, this seems like a no brainer.


Sirius has their own Facebook page, complete with over 700 fans. They added a video, and have some activity on the page as well. You can check it out here.
 
And... what about an Orbitcast page on Facebook?

Well, to make sure practice what I preach, I created one this morning. :) You can check it out here - complete with a fancier new logo.


UPDATE: Apparently that Sirius page isn't an official one. I should have read the overview a little better (it's actually in the screen capture above... ouch). Oh well, kudos to jeff for taking the initiative.
