If you are not on Facebook, you have my permission to leave this post … unless you are looking for a reason why Facebook might not be such a bad idea and maybe you should join after all 😉

Today I give you about 10 German pages worth ‘liking’ on Facebook. None of these are teaching sites (that will be another post). No, these pages are aimed at anybody who is interested in German news or other interesting things. So, no lessons, just useful information.

The first three are the Facebook pages of German magazines/ newspapers:

FOCUS online

Stern

Süddeutsche Zeitung

If you’re interested in German politics, check out some of the political pages

Bundesregierung

CDU/CSU Bundestagsfraktion

SPD

Bündnis 90/ Die Grünen

If you fancy something a bit easier, have a look at ‘Die Sendung mit der Maus’ which is aimed at German children:

Die Sendung mit der Maus

And the last two pages usually post jokes and funny sayings in German

Sprüchetante

Gunga Cartoons

If you decide to ‘like’ these pages you will then receive lots of German news, information and funnies keeping you informed and helping you practise your German reading and listening skills.

What do you think of my list? Do you already follow German Facebook pages? Can you add any to my list? If you think I should have added a page, please let me know.
