Are Social Networking Sites Reducing Activity on This List?

[Alan Dayley]

We seem to be asking "Who is taking our active users away?" or "Is Linux so
easy and boring that fewer and fewer want to talk about it?"

Would it not be more productive to ask "How do we attract and keep active
users?" and "Now that Linux is easy to use for basic things, what can we
talk about that is even more interesting?"

Perhaps one meeting should be dedicated to creating a Business Model
Canvass for PLUG. (http://www.businessmodelgeneration.com/canvas) Yes, PLUG
is not a business but it does have capabilities and resources to serve
people. What do those people want? How can PLUG provide it?

Just a note from a lurker.
