Have we considered?
Just a thought (without wanting to go down the path again as to why our membership is becoming a bit static).......have ABPA considered a share button on the site where people can share to other media accounts ... Google+, FBook, Twitter etc. It would seem to me in view of the modern technology that we are all using these days that it would be a logical thing to do.
It is the most favoured method the younger ones use of communicating and to me it appears we are overlooking it's potential
Cheers
Maureen

I may not always succeed in making a difference, but I will go to my grave knowing I at least tried.

Excellent idea, Maureen . . . but our muchly esteemed web mechanic/ El presidente was last seen in an New Orleans booze camp getting a neck tattoo after a 5 day bender.

Re: Have we considered?
So Mannie - any more thoughts on this - Even the setting up of a Face book page perhaps?

Re: Have we considered?
Wll I'm just trying to get a bit of interaction going and cross referencing some sites with each other. The one thing I discovered when I started writing seriously was that I had no idea where to go with my writing and since I am not particularly dumb I would think other people have the same issues. It is easy to like a Facebook site and connect it onto an individuals FB and then their mates get to see it and so it goes - the ripple effect.
I reckon we all need to be a little more proactive - those of us with websites and FB/Twitter pages could on occassions be slotting the ABPA site details into our pages, sharing some of our mates work around amongst our group of friends. We are the voice- we are poets - we are wordsmiths - we have the knowhow and the skills and yet sadly we seem at times to speak in whispers
