SketchUcation Member's NETWORK?
-
Yes Andy, as you say unsolicited adverts can be a problem but most email systems now have excellent filter systems. I do my filtering without even thinking about it these days. Also, there are some unsolicited adverts that I have found of interest so on balance I think I am about even.
If a member is uncomfortable about disclosing their email to other members in the Network, well its not for them plain and simple. So there is really not much point in raising the issue here as nothing much can be done about advertisers, they are a fact of life.
I should explain a little more about why I started this thread. Over the past 12 months since CATCHUP came into existence I have been getting a steady stream of SCF members seeking work and providing their details to me . I think the setting up of a SketchUcation NETWORK might address their immediate need, that being to get some exposure.
The idea is only in its infancy and may or may not be a running for us. However I think there would be substantial number of members that would subscribe willingly.
In my experience the bottom line as far as exposure is concerned is, if you put yourself out there, you should expect reaction both good and bad.

hehe, don't mind me too much, just being a bit critical I guess. Indeed, it is up to those interested to participate or not. I'm sure you all can find a good balance between exposure and a measure of control over the info.
-
Sounds good to me too...ditto what Richard wrote!
-
I am all for it, mike. and I am sure you will make sure all protective measures are taken.
-
Thanks guys for the vote of confidence. I am working on a system that hopefully would work. If we implement, it will probably be in the new site ..... coming soon (as they say )
-
Always interested in trusted relations and to enlarge my network with people that could share my interests, so I'll be in if it's done !
Good idea !
-
I think this is a great idea. Finding good sources of help with projects is tough enough, but having this network will certainly be a good pool to choose from.
-
Book me a spot, Mike. A shot of my melon will give you all a laugh.....

-
I am not so active a participant as I would like to be, but this idea sounds really nice
-
-
I'm in, but I think I'll just get it over with and post the real me now

OMG! I hope there isn't going to be a trend!

It is always good to have a network where you can contact someone of the same discipline to get some help.
I would like to bring my knowledge.
-
Great idea, at the very least it would be good to put faces to names, at best, a super way offer/request help, generate contacts etc.

We are listening to all suggestions and formulating a plan to launch something that will prove useful to all interested.
