This list also allows for a lot of rubbish.

Twitter is for short sentence types of updates. This list allows for prolonged detailed discussion. It also allows for detailed discussion of problems, suggestions interactively exchanged from both gw and other users. Finally this list was established way prior to twittermany people for whatever reason are more familiar with it so important information can easily be exchanged with all levels of window-eyes proficient and computer proficient users. Because twitter or facebook posts don't require as much writing they can be rapidly generated a message like "windows service pk 1 works great with window-eyes." than you just hit send.
No going through all the extra steps to put together an email.
You can do it on your mobile phone quickly like texting.
So, both the gw list and social networking are great and used for different reasons which may at times overlap.

Well, then, why bother with this list. It must cost money to maintain it.

Interesting.  One could get a twitter account, protect ones feeds and
only follow a few things.  In this way your not involved in the "social
networking" but you are still being kept up to date.

Clients such as qwitter make twitter easy to maintain.  You read the
tweets you want to.

That was unwarranted. Many people may enjpy taking advantage of all there is out there but many also do not wish to be part of the mad rush to participate in this social networking business. Just because Joe Blow does
it, does that mean everyone else must, or lose out?

If you don't use Twitter, that's fine. No one expects you to. But you
also lose out on the information being presented through our Twitter
feeds. That's just how it works. If you don't use it, you don't get the
information. As I mentioned, if something is really important, we post
to all of our lists. This was not that important.

Come on, Aaron. It only takes a second to send your tweet to the list.
I am another who doesn't want to mess with Twitter and I don't want
the RSS feed either. We're not all into social networking.
