Now that more important matters like the U.S. election are behind us, I hope 
you'll turn your gaze to the online-news Member Directory. From what I can 
tell, most of you still haven't checked it out yet. It's at 
http://www.social.com/cgi-bin/gts/on_member_dir

It's worth a look. This can become a great resource for our industry if 
y'all will start using it. Here's what some of the early users of the 
directory are saying:

>The site looks great.  I used it as an example today with my bosses
>of how to do this sort of membership page thing for one of our companies.

>Just wanted to add my two cents worth (plus the $25 :-) to say "Well
>Done" on the Online News Member Directory. I realize it is just starting
>but already I have seen Joan Kite and Dom Noth join as I was fiddling
>with my page this aftnoon. I think you have found an excellent niche that 
>will generate a good economic base for the online news list.

>I went ahead using the special URL and ID given adding my stuff to online
>news member directory, and it really works well, so lickety split with
>existing material that I had time to do a little HTML writing to make things
>line up right.  I think this could indeed prove a valuable resource once you
>get more people on board. ... I think this should
>prove useful as the word gets around and it's nice to match faces with some
>e-mail acquaintances -- hope more take advantage of this option.
