Dear .microsounders,<br>
<br>
Judging from the number of posts it seems like this mode of communication, i.e. the email list, has become antiquated.<br>

If you are on Facebook I think it might be a good idea to migrate to the .microsound group there since you can post media directly to the page -- which makes sense since we are a media-oriented community.<br>

anyway, hope everyone is doing well in this new year<br>
<br>
ciao!<br>
