the clunky email discussion lists do not always work as well (as this 
spontaneous & wild one here)
when they are moderated and controlled and when there is a fictive membership 
(hundreds, thousands?)
that do not engage in debates so that the extended discussion, as Alan seems to 
think it exists in empyre,.
is matter of a dozen guests a month who have been gathered into a forum - this 
can be very good and very provocative, indeed,
but I also have seen less and less listening,  Alan, than you suggest; and a 
lot of posters. 

putting human experience out of reach of machines?  tell me.


best wishes
Johannes Birringer

Subject: Re: [NetBehaviour] What the hell with Snapchat?? Help!

email lists, which still seem on the wane, seem to be the only online
forum for extended discussion and a kind of 'care' in reading that's
almost impossible elsewhere. that's why empyre, for example, works so
well. there's a kind of reading-voice and interiority that allows for
thoughtfulness, listening...
