Re: [rp-ml] Question about rp-ml

Rach

That was "Facebook for Adults" and I still stand by that. ;-)

As someone responsible for communcating the successes of this industry we are using every route of communication that is now available. Blogs, Printed Magazine, Weekly E-News, Twitter etc - But it is very rare you find a reader/subscriber hooked up to every route we offer and that is because it's all about personal choice and how and when you want to access the information. This can depend on your job, your employer or simply your attitude to the increased levels of tech noise we can be bombarded with.

Judging by the response today I'd say there are plenty who still want to be part of the RP-ML, and to access information this way, and in that case its very much still valid and valuable.

I'm still here too, although I tend to find more 'chatter' about the technologies on linked-in and it's associated groups. There are many groups - 3D printing, AM and ancillary techs too, together with user groups. Although G makes a valid point in that neutrality is not a given.

I once heard Linked in described as "the grown up Facebook" and I would probably agree with that!
