Jochen,

The level of interaction on Facebook is too high for my style, and the filtering through circles-of-trust mechanisms too low. After about 48 hours, I bailed from Facebook some months ago.

I'm not on Google+, but the circle concept would seem to be the right approach. I would consider it. Maybe I should give it a whirl.

However, I must confess that the mailing alias really is the level of interaction that I think I want from FRIAM (and from several other social networks to which I belong). Email with href links seems to work well.

Hi Grant,

Google+ is maybe a good addendum to a
mailing list. It is maybe not the perfect
place for an elaborate discussion among
peers, but it is easier if you want to share
multimedia objects, i.e. if you want to
post a link, a photo or a video, or if
you want to make a quick comment. And it
is interesting to check out a new technology.
Are you on Google+, too?

It is more a real threat for Facebook and
Twitter, because it offers similar features,
only better.

Jochen,

I hope this doesn't mean that we are now going to have two places to go to follow FRIAM conversations: The FRIAM mail alias AND a Google+ Circle!!
