[ECOLOG-L] ECOLOG-L added its 17,000th subscriber today

[David Inouye]

ECOLOG-L added its 17,000th subscriber today, perhaps continuing its exponential growth phase (about six months to add the newest 1,000), or maybe starting toward a logistic curve. Thanks to the University of Maryland for hosting the list. It is now the largest LISTSERV list hosted by the University (which means that I have to limit the number of postings per hour). There are about 1,400 subscribers from outside the United States, representing about 60 countries.

Many subscribers are members of the Ecological Society of America, but those of you who aren't can get information about membership (including student memberships) at the ESA Web site, < http://www.esa.org/>www.esa.org. Additional related lists are the ESANEWS list that provides a bi-monthly summary of policy news relevant to ESA members (see http://www.esa.org/pao/policy_news.php), and occasional other messages from the ESA headquarters (1,060 subscribers), and the ESA-STUDENTS listserv list.

Don't forget that you have the option of receiving ECOLOG-L messages in a daily digest, if you prefer that format.
