***APOLOGIES FOR RECEIPT OF DUPLICATE POSTINGS***
Friends/
I would most appreciate Your Thoughts on the Pros and Cons of current
listserv/e-discussion list technologies:
Listserv Technologies Have Passed Their Prime
--And/Or--
Listserv Technologies Are Just Hitting Their Stride.
***PLEASE-Contribute to the Discussion __IN_ The Facebook Information
Groups (FIG) group-PLEASE***
[IF POSSIBLE]
The Facebook Information Groups group is intended to serve as a venue in
which interested and
concerned parties can discuss any and all issues relating to the use of
Facebook as a replacement for
current listservs and other electronic discussion list technologies.
