    I'm in a few computer-related groups. Not so much on any of the big
    sites. Which is kinda sad I guess, but life changes.

    yeah, i've tried to recruit more posters from other
    newsgroups to read and write here but they don't seem
    to ever get past the "singles" part of the name.

    i'm around in some tech groups too, but nothing
    major at present, i mostly am reading Debian related
    stuff.


    It would be nice to have some sort of email archive somewhere, just in
    case someone needs to get in touch.

    an archive of ?

    The wording made sense to me at the time. Basically a tiny little
    directory list that says "If you're looking for this
    person/handle/obsolete address who used to post to SSM, this other address/method/whatever will probably get a message to them."

    I don't have much to say to anybody on a regular basis these days, but
    the idea of not being able to get word out about something if I did bugs me.

    i suspect just passing a note to someone on facebook
    or twitter would accomplish that.

    i could set up an e-mail list service, but i dunno if
    we have enough people left that would actually care to
    use it.
