I used to bowl lather when I first started DE shaving a year ago, but then I tried face lathering and have not wanted to go back. It's definitely not a speed thing as I probably spend just as much time face lathering as I did bowl lathering, but it is easier to determine when the lather reaches that really good stage.
I'm not sure that I've seen the face lathering snobbery on B&B - if it's there it's probably more tongue in cheek. You should definitely try both and then use whichever method works best for you. Just watch out for those few that mention bowel lathering!
BTW - welcome to B&B!
