I'll have to agree with Greg.
The French Forum is rather quiet too, except for our "Name that Meteorite" game.
Certainly Social Media Overload.
There are still people talking but there is nothing really new to talk about,
no new Fall, no new discoveries.
So a bit of peace and quiet.

Hi Bernd, Tracy, all.
Most of my meteorite related chat now occurs via Facebook
and this is
what i observe from many others too. Numerous people within
our
meteorite community who were regular posters here on the metlist i now
see
posting daily in the various facebook groups and forums. I know
it's not for
everyone but i for one would certainly feel as if i was
missing out on the
latest meteorite news and chat if I were not on
Facebook.
I have done quite a
few posts over the last year where i have
submitted the same post via various
different forums and plarforms to
try and see which generated the most
conversation and i have to say
Facebook won by huge margins every single
time.
Hope to see you on there maybe Bernd? Your experience and knowledge
would
be hugely beneficial to everyone there :-)
Kind regards
Martin

Hello Bernd and All,
Maybe 'Social Media Overload'? I have been talking with
several friends over
the last few months about the dramatic slowdown [from
last two years] which
has many contributing factors, none of which is purely;
MetList Forum,
Facebook, Twitter or any of the other outlets of info... almost
a 'Quiet
Before the Storm' effect. It may be an indication of 'The Market'
and/or
'Supply & Demand' which has been very tough since 2008 and even more
since
one year ago in 'my' experience and dealings. I should look up at the
sky
and see if the birds are heading in an odd direction for this time of
year...
Best Regards,
Greg

... or have I been dropped?
Hello Tracy, Greg, List,
No,
you haven't been dropped but the frequency of contributions
has dropped
considerably. Interestingly, the same phenomenon on
Geoff's CSR forum and even
on our German forum.
Best from Germany,
Bernd
