Discord! Of course!

How does one find the discussion on Discord, btw?

Ahem, yes, it's not Discourse, it's Discord. I mis-typed. Or perhaps I can blame auto-correct. Definitely not my lack of coolness though. Discord is like Slack or IRC but started in the gaming community. I had never heard of it until this year, when first my undergrads and then my grad students set up Discords for class and for their internal (non-gaming-related) communication. So now I am totally up to date on what it is.

A problem with moving from the listserv is that no matter what we choose to move to, it'll be a platform that won't be here (or at least won't be cool) in five years. Email seems likely to stay, although perhaps only us oldies will be using it?

    My Fellow AoIRistas

    I wholly agree with Holly and am wondering if there is a better platform for these kinds of discussions than a good old listerserv that AoIR might consider as an alternative. Thoughts?

    Also, what is "the Discourse discussion"? I know Axel mentioned it in his missive on methods. Is he referring to Discourse the gaming comm platform or some other "Discourse" place/site/platform?

    Take care

    Friends

    I agree with Holly and Rick, this list is a great way to keep up with
    things that are ongoing within Internet studies, and I feel fortunate to
    have the opportunity to, as Rick said, "peruse them at my leisure." This
    list often stimulates my thinking and helps me feel a sense of belonging
    within the academic community.

    As always, my thanks, Peter
