That is why I have the activity stream function here as well.

Anyway, just bringing this up because you and I are part of the old-school online community mentality, which is epitomized by the classic internet discussion forum.  I have realized for a while now for most people, this format has effectively been replaced by sites like Twitter.  However, there's still something to be said for being able to post within a closed system of known individuals, rather than posting on an open platform in 280 characters or fewer. 🦃
