I personally think that mailing lists were a decent medium for conversations in 1990, but forums are much better -- easily available historical context for a conversation, searchable topic history, and so on. I think you should close this mailing list and move everybody to a forum, though that might be a bit radical. These days I get more pleasure from reading the blogs of individual AGI-interested folks; the permanence of a blog entry encourages more effort than a casual mailing list post. The downsides are that it is not easy to find new blogs of interest, and it does fracture the "community" to not have a central discussion. Some blogs of interest: Apperceptual (Peter Turney): http://apperceptual.wordpress.com/ Artificial Intelligence (Abram Demski): http://dragonlogic-ai.blogspot.com/ Overcoming Bias (Eliezer Yudkowsky): http://www.overcomingbias.com/ The Causality Relay (Vladimir Nesov): http://causalityrelay.wordpress.com/ Derek's AGI Blog (me): http://agiblog.net Intelligence (Boris Kazachenko): http://scalable-intelligence.blogspot.com/ Matt Bamberger's Journal (Matt Bamberger): http://mattbamberger.livejournal.com/ The Multiverse According to Ben (Ben Goertzel): http://www.goertzel.org/blog/blog.htm Self-Aware Systems (Steve Omohundro): http://selfawaresystems.com/Surfing Samurai Robots (Richard Loosemore): http://susaro.com/ The Streeb-Greebling Diaries (Bob Mottram): http://streebgreebling.blogspot.com/texai.org (Steve Reed): http://texai.org/blog/ There are of course lots of other futurist/science/singularity blogs out there. Are there other AGI-related technical blogs of interest that I don't know about?
