My sentiments exactly.? Probably 75% of my TechNet replies are made "replying to all" and deleting
the TechNet address, so only the posting person gets a reply

Subject: Re: [TN] New interface for Technet - "last chance" to comment
Kim,
I really don't have any issues with the current interface for the Technet. I
also do not believe that it is necessary to remove the email address form the
FROM line. There are times when I reply directly to the individual instead of
the whole universe. If you remove the email address it would prevent that and
it could increase the amount of chatter flowing through the Technet.
As far as the junk mail being a result of the email address being present in the
"FROM" I do not believe it is related. I get very little junk mail and I cannot
contribute any of it to the Technet.
Take care,

I previously sent this to you on July 6 and not much response but from the few
that did, it sounds like you are happy with the current Technet interface
(although you would like e-mail addresses taken out of the FROM line). Just
wanted to give you one last chance to let me know your thoughts before our
internal team meets at the end of July.
Thank you!
Kim

Subject: New interface for Technet - your comments?
One of the comments I received asked if participants could post profiles and
pictures of themselves. Unfortunately, this is not feasible on the software we
are currently using. However, we have been experimenting with Groupsites and
would like to offer this functionality to our Technet participants. Of course,
the drawback would be that everyone would have to move to a new platform.
However, Groupsites offers personal profiles including biogr
aphies and photos,
easy searching, file posting and photograph posting, plus the opportunity for
better group communications. Consider it like a LinkedIn or Facebook,
specifically set up for you for free. Posts can be sent to you in digest form or
in real time.
Here are some example sites for you to look at (I've linked directly to the
discussion pages so it's not too overwhelming):
http://capitolgreenroofs.groupsite.com/discussion/forums
http://champions.groupsite.com/discussion/forums
http://usergroup.doubletake.com/discussion/forums
One of my concerns is whether companies are allowing access to sites like this.
I'd especially like any comments on people who can't click through these links.
The site would be set up by IPC and would be accessed through our site, although
you would have to create a free user account on Groupsites to participate.
I know there was discussion about attracting people from other countries to
Technet. I don't know what this would do specifically but a more up-to-date
interface offering more functionality would certainly attract more participants,
especially among younger people entering the field.
Your comments on this idea are extremely welcome, either here on Technet, to me
personally or through a very tiny survey I set up at:
http://www.surveymonkey.com/s.aspx?sm=x3PS7MISHrXKFlhQPczCJA_3d_3d.
If we do proceed, we would like to have some volunteers comment on the set up of
the new site and to test it out. You can volunteer through the survey or to me
directly.
Thanks so much for your feedback. And, please note - this is not a "done deal" -
if the group hates this idea, we won't do it without your approval.
