It was posted by Fred, the Cohousing-L list manager <fholson [at] cohousing.org> because the posted message was in html only format which the listserve does not handle. Html (and attachments) are not distributed because they can cause problems. Please do not send html only posts. Most email containing html (most these days?) also have a plain text version. Fred, list manager -------------------- FORWARDED MESSAGE FOLLOWS -------------------- I got on Nextdoor after one of my coho neighbors shared an interesting conversational thread with me. In my neighborhood, at least, it is fairly low-traffic and focuses on things like local safety issues and events, referrals for plumbers, lost pets, that sort of thing. I don’t think you get to define your own neighborhood, it seems to be geographic, so not sure how you would use solely for your cohousing community. There is also a prohibition on commercial activitiy (I got my hand slapped once for posting about a new business grand opening) so you couldn’t really use it as a marketing/sales tool. I’m always a little leary of any group I’m part of relying too much on these free online spaces - they are created by some other entity whose purpose may be different than yours, they can change their algorithms or privacy policies or plain go out of business at any time – and what info are they collecting about you? ------------------------------ Eris Weaver, FrogSong Cohousing in Cotati, CA Graphic Facilitator & Group Process Consultant eris [at] erisweaver.info http:// eris [at] erisweaver.info 707-338-8589 “On days when you have no ideas at all, the best thing you can do is start doodling.” Charles M.
