Now that we've had it for a while, what do you think?
I like it.
I thought that by now it would be used more.
I visit it 3 or 4 times a week. I check the home page then my personal page to see what activity there has been.

I like how easy it is to post photos tho it seems difficult to keep organized
I like being able to upload some home recordings and listening to what others have posted.
And there are a few "subject specific" groups that I look into. Most often the "Home Recording" group.

I think its kind of hard to gauge how much it is used because it seems most activities take place "behind the curtains". By that I mean you have to make a few clicks to get to a specific area to see if there is anything new.

I'm rarely on it. maybe once every 3 weeks.
I think if you have the capability or knowledge to put you own music or Videos on it, then you may use it more. It's not that I don't want to , but, I am 95 % of the time on this "site"

I go there nearly every time I come here. Some of us Aussies are using our Downunder group regularly and I always check in on the other Aussies homepages, and a select few American brothers/sisters.

But... sometimes I feel like I'm the only one going there.

In saying that, there ARE a lot of photos/videos/songs being uploaded there.

I hated the forum that was associated with the site though, I was glad to see that go.

I rarely visit that site. Too confusing/busy.

I check on it occasionally. I'm not obsessed with it like I am with this site. The photos and videos are obviously easier on that site. Anything I want to listen to, I do at home where no one will be annoyed other than my wife. At "work" I try not to bother anyone except you guys.

I check it out routinely for all of the reasons mentioned so far.

The only time I go there is when I click on the wrong favorite heading and I go there instead of here.

Once a month or so. I'll go there more when I have some audio to post but I'm mainly here for the social aspect.

When The Sarcastics usergroup seemed to implode I kinda lost interest. (Really, it's like a buncha comedians sitting around telling each other jokes.) There are more people to pick on here....

I check in there from time to time, but it still feels isolated to me; here, it's like I've opened the door to a banquet hall and can see over all the tables and notice who's talking at each one. There, I spend time poking my head into different rooms to see if anyone I want to talk to happens to be in one.
Being as technically inept as I am, it doesn't matter too much whether or not stuff is easy or hard to download--it's still a mystery to me, either way.
That's why I'm glad the site here remains "as usual"--I can function in it to the limits of my extreme technical liabilities.

Good Place to share bigger photos...
Good Place to listen to y'all's music...
But otherwise, I hang-out here in lo-tek land.

I like it, but not enough people use it often enough to make it interesting for daily visits. It's a dynamic entity and depends upon it's users to make it work.

What happened to the chat feature? That would make it more interesting.

I go there once in a while... the home recording group was alot of help.
