And a separate mail about the yahoo groups. As the others mentioned 1listsculpting is a mailinglist. So, while you can read messages on internet the message service is actually e-mail based. Messages are send to a central address which are then forwarded to the members either as separate mails or in daily digests.
There are other services online though like the files and photo archives, databases, links and chat.
Both forums and e-mail lists have their advantages. I\'d guess you already know those of forums since you\'re here, so here are some of a mailinglist:
-you do not have to be online to read and compose messages. You can do all this with your e-mail program. Good for those who are still using a phone connection.
-everything is automatically delivered at your doorstep. You do not need to manually go through different pages and threads to find all the latest messages. This saves time which the professionals on our list seem to like.
-Messages are easy to file if needed.
-Something which is both an advantage and disadvantage: you get all messages. So it\'s easier to quickly go through them but it also means you get the threads you\'re not interested in.
-One disadvantage is that it\'s more difficult to find all messages of one threads if you want to read it back. This needs some sorting.
