The Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority now has its own fancy Facebook page. Change has come!
On this Facebook page, you can do many fun things: You can participate in a photo caption-writing contest or watch “Littering Rabbit,” a badly dubbed kung-fu video of someone in a Dragon Shirt telling you not to litter on the Metro.
WMATA’s page is bizarre — you get the feeling that perhaps somebody’s teen-aged son is running the whole operation. BUT there are some things on there that make it actually helpful: There’s a discussion board that asks Metro users for suggestions, which surprisingly, isn’t just a place for people to bitch about how much Metro sucks.
Become a fan if you can. Or not.

If metro could sell beer at the Franconia-Springfield metro station, that’d work out really great for me. Thanks FB friend!
May it be respecfully requested of our Wonkette Overlords and Ovuladies that they do something to put AN END TO THE WONKABOUT TAINT THAT SPREADS OVER THE WHOLE BLOG ONce you click through a Wonkabout post? The blue’s okay but the font is ugly and hard to read.
Maybe you could get some tech support and design assistance from the fine, fine Web designers at Drudge or The Politico, ha ha.
I like the blue; it soothes me. And there is a mini Wonkette banner on the left side of Wonkabout so you can get back quickly if you need to.
[re=250340]V572625694[/re]: I’m using Firefox and I don’t see anything different about Wonkette after going to Wonkabout. Font for comments at Wonkabout is not the same as the font used at Wonkette, but font for posts seems to be the same. Might be a browser issue.

Anyone in DC who hates the subway should try living for a year in a city that doesn’t have one. That’s a precious resource you have there, people.
