In an act of prevarication last week, I set up a room in Friendfeed to
mirror Allstat posts. This provides people with an alternative way of
following the postings, and also a place where discussions of posts can
be had, rather than filling up the mailing list or in private emails. I
know some of you want to discuss more than is acceptable on the mailing
list, so here's the chance to do it!
For those of you who don't know, FriendFeed is a web site that
aggregates information from different places (blogs, Flickr, Twitter,
direct postings etc.) in one page. You can follow what other people are
posting, and also add comments. Rooms are convenient ways of following
the relevant parts of a group of people's input.
The Allstat room is here: <http://friendfeed.com/rooms/allstat>, and
from there you can roam around to create a new account, and find out
more about FriendFeed (if I put more links in, I think this will get
marked as spam).
FWIW, I did this on my own initiative, so this isn't linked "officially"
to Allstat in any way.
I hope some of you will turn up there, and join in the fun.
