Re: [mou-net] Purpose of this listserv?
I agree with Jim and everyone who posted on this thread. I do not have a Facebook account and I am no fan of Facebook even if I was willing to monitor 10 Facebook sites to keep up. Facebook is a black hole for advertising dollars and the damage is palpable (see today's StarTribune, op ed page A9). I do miss seeing the reports and, sadly, miss many current sightings and interesting observations. A big 'thank you' to Alyssa, Kim, and others who go the extra mile to post for us.

Amen to Mr. Chapman’s comments on Facebook. It is a scourge, a curse, a misery. There is no conscience there, only greed and complete disregard for damage done. Information found on Facebook comes with a very high price. We are fortunate to have this listserv. It has a purpose (that should be obvious), and serves it well.

Re: [mou-net] Purpose of this listserv?
I'm adding my thanks and appreciation to all the above, as MOU and mnbird are where I post. That happens rarely for now; volunteer gigs are ramping up a bit, and COVID is not ramping down, so birding is confined to exercise walks close to home. If I start seeing more migration action, though, MOU is where I'll post. Thanks again, to everyone who keeps us connected!

Re: [mou-net] Purpose of this listserv?
I, for one, am thankful that this ancient LISTSERV technology and its admins have continued to provide a communication avenue for the Minnesota birding community for years. (Decades? The lists.umn.edu archive goes back to 2008, while mail-archive goes back to 2005, and it was clearly in use prior to that: https://www.mail-archive.com/mou-net@lists.umn.edu/mail50.html. How long has MOU-NET been around?) It's nice to have a place for us in the MN birding community who refuse to support for-profit social media platforms that unapologetically generate revenue from political disinformation campaigns under the guise of "free speech". Even if we rarely post to it ourselves! Dale Trexel On Thu, Aug 13, 2020 at 8:05 AM Bob Dunlap wrote: > Hi M.L.

Re: [mou-net] Purpose of this listserv?
Hi M.L. (and others), The mission of the listserve has not changed, and all such posts are still encouraged. What has changed is that there are now several other platforms that birders use to share bird sightings and other information, including most notably Facebook but also Twitter and Instagram among still others. eBird also allows people to sign up for rare bird alerts in a given county, state, or country. All of this has resulted in a fragmented landscape of bird sightings, and in many ways it’s now up to the individual to determine how connected they want to be. This is in no means limited to MOU-net, as other listserves around the country have been dealing with the same issue for about a decade now. Several in the MOU try to ensure that notable sightings are being cross-posted among platforms, so that if a rare bird is posted on Facebook it will in turn get posted on MOU-net, and their efforts are much appreciated. Finally, we’re just about at the end of the summer lull in terms of bird activity, and we’ve already seen some shorebird reports trickling in which is typical for this time of year. As migration picks up over the remainder of the month I think we can expect to see more reports. Bob Dunlap On Thu, Aug 13, 2020 at 7:13 AM M. L.
