Re: [DDN] why not googlegroups - Re: The future of DDN

See the parts about trimming messages and about copyrighted materials, for instance. Also, about Rene's change of subject line to why not googlegroups - and with apologies for repeating myself - there is a monoculture problem with choosing Google groups. Nowadays, choosing Google groups would be the same as if the Digital Divide Network had chosen MSN groups as a host when it started. This is why I expressed interest for Steven Cliff's http://forums.e-democracy.org/ proposal in a former message.

Re: [DDN] in search of volunteer moderators (was The future of DDN)
Sabi ni Andy noong Fri, 2 Jan 2009 05:46:31 -0800 (PST): Why not just have ddn activities in multiple places? There's no reason why this has to be an either-or discussion. In an ideal world, DDN would be via email, on Moodle, have a wiki, be on Facebook, Twitter, Friendfeed, YouTube, etc... Interesting idea. I know that at least Twitter and YouTube are mashable although offhand I can't think of how this would work. Maybe someone with a clearer mind (Christmas holiday hangover g) can cook something up. -- Daniel O.
