Last week as I was preparing our new media kit I was stunned to realize that the Likes to our Facebook Page (fb.com/VancouverIsAwesome) have increased by almost 200% since a year ago!

Without Jenn this chart below would look a lot slimmer.

V.I.A. Facebook growth year to year

While I was reflecting on our Page I got to thinking about all of the ones that we follow, and I wanted to share ten of my favourites with you. So here they are below, in no particular order. You should be following all of these!

Simply the best currywurst in Vancouver (and beer).

The Dirty Apron!

Founded by the folks at Chambar, it's so much more than a place where you'll learn how to cook.

The Cheaper Show!

Once the best annual art show in Vancouver with 200 artists selling pieces for $200 each, but they haven't held it for a couple of years now. Like the page so you can be the first to know when they bring it back.

The Vancouver Archives!

If you liked our history book, Vancouver WAS Awesome, you'll love the Vancouver Archives. A majority of the photos from it came from them and they post from their collection often.
