PLUG mail list is darkening? When was the last time ... Restaurants had NO pictures on their menus? (-: o_o ^_^ 7_7 >_> v_v L_L <_< o_o :-) I dunno about 16th-century Peruvian fishmongers, but they might have their own YouTube Channel, providing they have oppose-able thumbs. [The preceeding jokes are my contribution to the PLUG mailing list] (-: Chas.M. :-) Date: Thu, 2 May 2013 20:03:38 -0700 Subject: Re: Are Social Networking Sites Reducing Activity on This List? From: adayley@gmail.com To: plug-discuss@lists.phxlinux.org 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.

I've used and been frustrated by a lot of list archives but this one is by far the best I've ever seen. -- Bob Holtzman If you think you're getting free lunch, check the price of the beer.
