All,
While I respect and wholeheartedly support AADMM’s effort to improve and streamline the way we look and function online, I continue to be very disappointed in this new system of sharing ideas and commentary via the website. What was a very simple way to hear what is on the minds of my colleagues in the national DMM community has now become cumbersome and annoying, to the point that communication has virtually ceased since the system was inaugurated. The list serve has been one of my main attractions to AADMM membership. Without the easy use of the system, the value of my membership is significantly decreased. It is unrealistic to expect that all of us will log into the website and remain logged in to view comments and participate in email discussions. It just won’t happen, period. I realize a number of email updates have recently come through but it has now taken me a quarter of an hour to log in and participate in the discussion. This system hinders the free flow of ideas and discussion and should be scrapped. In the long run, it will reduce membership.
Thanks,
Laurie Minerbi
