Changing the subject line to "Relevance of Accessindia Mobile Mailing list".
The idea of creating and maintaining a separate sister mailing list for mobile phones and tablets only to control the traffic of emails on accessindia in my humble opinion is not a healthy choice simply because mobile phones, smart watches, tablets, netbooks, TV boxes, media players, gaming devices, Laptops, all in ones, desktops, servers and a whole lot of gadgets , whether outgoing or upcoming have a lot in common in terms of their usage and operations. Hence whatever discussions go on in either of the mailing lists are quite overlapping and are related to one and another. This pretty much confuses people whether to post on accessindia mailing list or accessindia mobile mailing list. So I think even though the earlier way was not the best way, it was somehow okayish. It is quite natural to find our mailboxes flooded with innumerable posts, appointments, requests and emails and it is going to increase in future so the wisest thing is to apply rules and filters to your mailboxes and strictly refrain from sending unwanted and inappropriate emails rather than complaining about the traffic from any mailing list for that matter. -----Original Message----- From: AccessIndia [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Geetha Shamanna Sent: 27 March 2013 23:59 To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [AI] earliest help needed in choosing android phone I agree. It must be said that traffic on Access India hasn't reduced significantly since the mobile list was created, if that was the reasoning behind the new list. Also, many people who could have benefitted from the discussion on mobiles here, as well as people who could have contributed to the discussion have refrained from joining the list as following two lists is more cumbersome than following one high-traffic list. Just my two cents...

Many people agree with me but wont voice their concerns because it will hurt your feelings. I hope better sens prevails and we stop dividing when we know that technology between mobiles and computers are merging and dynamic. I know that many people have been forced to join the other list because they want the information. On taking a poll of the users of the second list you will find that they rather have been only part of the original accessindia. You may justify your actions on the grounds of practicality but even that arguement fails if taken to its logical conclusion. You are the moderator so I will not argue further. Egroups can be made every day and many people do make egroups. Moderators give direction but it is the faith of the individual members in their fellow members, the substance of the discussion and the broadness of opinion that makes an egroup grow and be of use. I hope you will rethink your decision.
