True. That's the shows the strength of reddit.. The noise is dramatically
reduced. You can scan a whole page in a few seconds and just see what
interests you.
For instance, for the FB group.. it was all those f'in little planets.
I can't even bring myself to create them anymore.
And I thought they were a fad 5 years ago.
Anyway, if someone is interested in posting the first few good links or
helping out with moderation. Let me know.

We all use this forum to announce or denigrate other types of forums.
What does that tell you?
You might. The vast, vast majority of people I know, work with, and
socialize with, don't subscribe to any mailing lists - in fact a
significantly large number of people I associate with barely use email at
all, as it's viewed (rightly, in my judgement) a terribly limited, awkward,
and inflexible medium.
Anyway, this *mailing list* has a lot of noise on it these days, including
discussions of the opinions of the relative value of other communications
mediums, frequent debates about platforms, and other discussions with only
the most tenuous connection to the stated purpose of the forum. I would
agree, not every medium is right for everyone - it's often generational and
cultural - but to suggest that those mediums are not valuable is entirely
self-centered. But mailing lists are hardly the end-all-be-all of social
communications mediums.
If you think Twitter is just for following Bieber, and Facebook is all about
fending off requests from people you left behind when you graduated high
school, you use them differently than I do.
