I myself can't seem to get into blogs or facebook (except to try to promote my belly dance veils). Maybe it's just that I haven't a clue how to find what I might be looking for. I am not interested in one particular area of costuming so I'm not aware of what's out there. What I have always liked about this email list and the theatrical costuming list is that they are 2 places I can go to easily when i have a question. There's usually at least one person on one of the 2 lists that knows the answer. I love these lists and would hate to see them go, but I do understand people wanting more specific areas that address their own particular concern.

Btw, while I'm at it,and since we're discussing facebook, any belly dancers out there? Please check out my facebook page where I sell the hand-dyed silk veils i make. Is it ok to promote ourselves on this list, I hope?

Of course, blogs have been around for a long time. But, I typically see them used more as form of journalism (one person posts regularly/provides most of the content, a few others briefly comment) rather than discussion.

I'm really more interested in substantive information than "chat" or "belonging to a community."
