OXYGEN is now on Facebook!
First, on behalf of all the OXYGEN contributors, here’s wishing you a very happy and fruitful 2009! Second, I have an announcement to make – a new feature for a new year:
We recently had our first Christmas gathering of old and new contributors and at the meeting, it was suggested that there should be an OXYGEN Facebook group. I’ve started one, although at the moment it’s a little empty. Facebook members can visit it at http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=52259289739. Non-Facebook members have to sign up for an account before you can view the contents.
In the past, some of you have written in to affirm us for our reflections. I would like to invite you to post your affirmations at this Facebook group. Also, some of you have raised certain things in past reflections for discussion with others on the mailing list. However, because this mailing list contains several hundred people, it hasn’t been wise to use the mailing list for discussion.
Now, with the Facebook group, we can bring these to the discussion board provided. Previously, some of you have also made suggestions for improvement, one of which has been to have a discussion board. Now that suggestion, once put on hold, has become a reality.
All affirmations, suggestions, discussions and feedback are welcome! The regular contributors, most of whom are younger than me and more savvy with the use of Facebook will double up as moderators for the discussion board. We also hope to provide you with a brief description of our regular contributors (another suggestion made before).
Of course the purpose of the Facebook group is not only for discussion, but at present, I can’t think of anything else to use it for other than giving OXYGEN a more public profile on the Internet. Once again, suggestions are welcome!
Peace,
Dan
