Dear Jay, I think the problem with Facebook (and similar) is the usual one of these social media led apps and, indeed, of a traditional webpage - security. The advantage of email like the existing Lutelist is that it's largely immune from such machinations. I really don't want to see ads etc scrolling down the page..... regards Martyn

It seems appropriate that we collectively try to find a new home ground for sharing information and listing our lutes for sale. One simple and straight forward solution might be just to set up a closed, invite only group on Facebook. It would allow us to kill those two birds with one stone (sharing information/listing lutes for sale). I am happy to set up the group and share a link for people to join if you're all interested? The only issue is getting a critical mass of people to join. Another solution is to... try to find another solution like a more traditional webpage forum. I don't have expertise in this area however. Thoughts?
