[meteorite-list] meteorite-list] List is getting torpid

Hi Shawn,

In this day and age, posts via EMAIL are pretty much instantaneous.  I have
never gone to the website to read or post messages for this list.  Is there
a reason why you do that instead of just getting the posts instantly via
email?  IMO, reading messages in a list such as this on a website is
archaic, but maybe you have your reasons.  I used to do that on Compuserve
20 to 25 years ago, but why go to different websites for all of the
community groups that you "read" instead of having the messages all sent
automatically to email?  It's easy to set up rules in email apps so that you
have all of the MetList emails in one folder, all of the
Pizza-is-yummy-Society emails in another folder, etc.  But like I said,
maybe you have your reasons.

Regards,

Bob L.

Hello Listers

My two cents

The List went quite ish when Art did the over haul and personal I don't go
to the website any more because the posts arent instant. Right now, if you
go to Meteorite Central the latest post is from March 5th. In this day and
age, people want their posts to be instant, how it was on meteorite central
before the over haul. Now it take weeks before a post shows up on the
website, not sure why Art did this, but it sounds like its hurting the
website then helping it. Art, I wish the website went back to the way it
was, I would go to the website 10 to 15 times a day if not more, now I don't
go, I have a link to some MC mail list that shows the postings, but for real
time use on Meteorite Central its dated and not prevalent to current trends
in social media and how websites work today with instant posting. Please fix
Meteorite Central Art  to how it was :)
