Re: Life
The tools are all different but at the end of the day - either you can 'get a converssation going' in an internet mediam - or you can't - Twitter is fairly useless - you can so easily lose the thread, likewise a Blog is a set of 'longer' comments and discourse around a theme - for a conversation I have always vafoured the threaded Discussion List - and for coomunity the Listserv variety - some of the oldest comms but still the most affective .. for a conversation over a debate (like this one). I could have written this in one line as "If you want community and sustainabilty then listserv always worked well for me!" - but your blogging tool would not let me post anything under 140 words...saying it wouldn't make sense! lol [Comment] [Permalink] [Previous][Next]
