Introducing Lost Remote’s email groups
Cory Bergman November 19th, 2006
Back in the early days of Lost Remote, we hosted an email discussion group for web producers. Today, in an experiment, we’re bringing it back for TV and interactive staffers. Called “The Circuit” and powered by Google, we’re offering three separate groups:
Lost Remote Producers: For web and mobile producers to talk content
Lost Remote Developers: For web and mobile developers to talk technology
Lost Remote Revenue: For sales and business development execs to talk revenue
The idea here is to exchange ideas and resources, as well as talk through some of the more critical issues of the day. And there are plenty of them, in fact, more than ever. I know what you’re thinking, you already get too much email. That’s why we’re keeping the lists focused and moderated. Promotional (or unnecessary) messages won’t make it through. So sign up, give it a try and let us know what you think. (And thanks to everyone on Sunday who offered feedback on how to set this up.)

For the record, I thought long and hard about starting a forum. But in my experience, they’re rarely used by the people with the best ideas. And forums tend to spiral out of control with spam and gossip. Email, despite being a little old fashioned, is still the best way to reach busy people — which is just about everyone in the interactive space these days.
So we\’ll see what happens.

I would love to see a forum for web producers. It would be nice to talk to like-minded people. I work at a TV station where I had to explain what a blog is to the Executive Producer.

I always have terrible trouble with comment-related plugins that require me to put some line in the comment loop; I can never seem to find the right spot. Can anyone tell me where I should put the php line in my comments loop? I haven not modified anything much, and I would be very grateful. Thanks!
