ynotds's Journal: Nice to be back

Hopefully this means that whatever had been preventing me posting here from my ISP (one of Australia's big 5) has finally gone away.

When such problems persist, it is all too easy to just forget about the possibility of posting anything.

Similarly, I'm becoming more and more aware just how easy it is for one's involvement in once all consuming online communities to just fade away without notice.

That awareness hasn't changed my development objectives, but it has again focused my attention on some of the deep impediments to truly empowering online communities.
