I would like to hear from you...
 

I am considering writing an article about the effect of BrainTalk's demise on each of you. I know my own reaction was something of a surprise to me. I quite frankly didn't know how much BT mattered.

BrainTalk #1 was the largest online community in the world! Something like 50,000 members! And we woke up one morning and it was gone.

The sinking of this CyberTitanic deserves to be recognized. Let's compile our individual stories in its honor. And in honor of those who didn't make it. There really were some, you know:(

What I would like to know....
 

is what happened to the old braintalk really? I was a bit jarred to find it gone one day and fortunatley had a few e-mail connections, but I know that many didn't. I am highly suspect as to why it disappeared and have several subversion theories (perhaps I'm just becoming paranoid). Yes I agree with you that we should have a backup plan in the event of future unforseen catastrophes. I went thru a week or so of withdrawl then got on with life. Fortunatley it was summer so the routine in my life is pretty non existant anyway. If everyone made a point of connecting to at least two others on the board we could make sure we have some community connection. The PLWP website has disappeared without explaination also...:eek:
