Dear AoIRists, I hope this finds you well, despite it all. I'm wanting to know if any of you have good experience and can thereby recommend alternatives to a Facebook closed or secret group - i.e., a platform that offers the functionalities of these, but avoids entanglement with FB? Yes, I have some realization that, to put it in Montanan, there ain't nothin' pure, especially in the online world. But there are greater and lesser degrees of entangelement, and these may be relevant to the project I have in mind. Many thanks in advance for any advice and suggestions you can share. best, - charles ess -- Professor Emeritus University of Oslo <http://www.hf.uio.no/imk/english/people/aca/charlees/index.html> Secretary, IFIP Working Group 9.8, Gender, Diversity, and ICT <http://ifiptc9.org/9-8/> Fellow, Siebold-Collegiums Institute for Advanced Studies, Julius-Maximilians-Universität Würzburg, Germany 3rd edition of Digital Media Ethics now out: <http://politybooks.com/bookdetail/?isbn=9781509533428>
