I don't think we really have anything to worry about as long as this system stays up and running. (A number of us send Hanford a few bucks every year, but probably not what it really costs though...) Those who need and enjoy Facebook will use it. Others, who appreciate and who recognize what TC offers and "how" it offers it, will use it in addition to Facebook. But on the other hand too high of a message volume would be (and has been at times) a problem for me. This site is manageable on a daily or every-other-day basis.

The pendulum could swing back here at any time. But "less is more" if we write meaningful stuff. There were periods where there was some fluff on a daily basis. From that point it has gotten better here. The more transactional stuff which wasn't so deep has pretty much gone to Facebook, although there are some fine conversations to be had there as long as you're ok with them vaporizing into the ether at some not-too-distant point.

I think updated board/system software could help us, but that's pure speculation. I'm mostly fine with how it is but would love to be able to post photos from my smartphone, plus a few other things with how URLs and links to photos are encapsulated and not interpreted well by my email clients.

As others have said, there is great information stored here and its searchable.
