Personally, I feel an email list is for literate people who actually use sentences and paragraphs and have substantial ideas and opinions. One rarely sees that on forums, and twitter and facebook aren't worth mentioning as mediums of actual communication.
It seems that people are losing either the desire or the ability to communicate at all using written language. If you ask me, even chimps could probably learn to twitter... That being said, something's going on here and I wonder if it has more to do with diverging musical tastes, or lack of interest in Detroit music. I've noticed Andrew Duke and I posting on-topic messages about actual music we like, including but not limited to 313 music, and there was absolutely no response. Theories: 1. People on the list aren't buying new music, or 2. People are buying new music, but they don't want to discuss it, or 3. Our tastes just don't coincide so we have too little common ground for discussion, or 4. People's need for communication is indeed fulfilled through other outlets such as forums and facebook, etc. ~David On Mon, Feb 22, 2010 at 9:45 AM, Odeluga, Ken <[email protected]> wrote: > Hey man, you won't find no po face on me either, so relax :) > > I'm just suggesting that the non-music trivia seems to make up the bulk of > what gets discussed nowadays, that's all. > > I hope it's not going to stay like this, but I fear what with > twitterfacebookbuzz etc, the days of the e-mail list might be numbered. > > Ken > > > > > -----Original Message----- > From: Matt Kane's Brain [mailto:[email protected]] > Sent: Monday, February 22, 2010 3:41 PM > To: Odeluga, Ken > Cc: cheater cheater; kent williams; Frank Glazer; list 313 > Subject: Re: (313) The Long Arm Of DJ Rolando > > On Mon, Feb 22, 2010 at 10:32, Odeluga, Ken <[email protected]> wrote: >> Rearrange these words people 'the,' 'scraping,' 'bottom,' 'barrel,' 'the,' >> 'of,' ... >> >> I know I'm not helping much though ;-) >> >> Is 313 over? > > Sorry, I didn't realize I was killing 313 by not being 100% serious all the > time.
