For me, twitter and app.net have taken over from the mailing list. Spider webs of information linking between people and pop up on my feed. I no longer use RSS because if it is worth hearing about, someone seems to be talking about it. Blogs are still important, but I hear about their content differently.
As for the group and meetings, I don't live in Seattle, so I can't really comment on that part. -Ian On Tue, Oct 23, 2012 at 8:17 AM, Dave Foley <davidmfo...@gmail.com> wrote: > This group, despite having a number of very smart people and some of the > best programmers I know, has withered to the point that it contains only a > few announcements and some job spam that the moderators delete > periodically.
