... so you want to be able to post pictures...
... but you prefer they don't come into your own mailbox ?

Hmm ? Are file servers still OK ? Like the Rietveld archive, where people
can already include links to pictures. (Indeed, if you don't like email,
just read the archive and discard all emails - except your own of course).

You must still remember to read the archive, while emails do get attention.
But you could also do that with Twitter - eg "check out my new article
about ... complete with pictures". Some people might even read your article
and not just your Tweet. I'm not sure what Facebook can contribute there,
but an HTML archive complete with pictures, or a Rietveld Wiki, would be
good. That would actually involve some work. Davide ?

On the (unrelated) point, is the Rietveld list really about publicity ?
Certainly, attracting public funding for Science is important, but on the
Rietveld list ?

And yes, Bill Gates and IBM were wrong about computers. Troglodytes too I
suppose - laughing all the way to the bank.
