one must agree that the Biznik website "rocks" compared to HT. (hope that's not too juvenile of a phrase :} Most posts in this email-forum were comparing the websites and how we could improve HTs... I think most of us still believe the best way to make leads and um, well, talk to each other is face to face...and we still think HT is a great group.... I think the HT website is really cumbersome and doesn't help members communicate very well. After all, most people benefit from discussions that take place on this email list... it just looks like we've come to a bit of a crossroads...that's all.... -tom On Jan 5, 2007, at 3:01 PM, mallets at mac.com wrote: > ** The author of this post was a Good Dobee. > ** You too can help the group > ** Fill out the survey/skills inventory in the member's area. > ** If you did, we all thank you. > > > Thanks Jan...My impression of Biznik also.... seemed like a > "happyhour" club for the self percieved hip up and coming > JVE > On Jan 5, 2007, at 1:47 PM, Jan Werner wrote: > >> ** The author of this post was a Good Dobee. >> ** You too can help the group >> ** Fill out the survey/skills inventory in the member's area. >> ** If you did, we all thank you. >> >> >> Thanks for mentioning the "doobee" thing. >> >> Although I was long ago won over by the high quality of the >> information posted by HT members, I still find it somewhat hard to >> take seriously a group that hides behind this kind of juvenile >> posturing. >> >> Likewise, although the Biznik site is very slick and well >> designed, the slogan ("Business networking that doesn't suck") is >> so off-putting that I would never consider associating myself with >> it. >> >> Of course, those involved in Biznik may actually think they are >> cleverly chasing away those people who don't share what they >> probably see as their generational outlook, but eventually, anyone >> who is serious about making a living on their own needs to grow up >> and stop playing to the insiders in their own circle. >> >> Jan Werner >> ______________ >> >> Michael Muller wrote: >>> ** The author of this post was a Good Dobee. >>> ** You too can help the group >>> ** Fill out the survey/skills inventory in the member's area. >>> ** If you did, we all thank you. >>> I would attend such a meeting. >>> BTW, is the "doobee" thing really necessary on each email? >>> Mik >>> At 11:18 AM 1/5/2007, Tom Adams / Reelife wrote: >>>> ** The author of this post was a Good Dobee. >>>> ** You too can help the group >>>> ** Fill out the survey/skills inventory in the member's area. >>>> ** If you did, we all thank you. >>>> >>>> >>>> Dan, >>>> >>>> I agree....we don't want to put the cart before the >>>> horse...sounds like a website meeting with all interested HT >>>> members is in order... >>>> (talk about opening up a whole new can of worms...yowza). >>>> >>>> Anyone interested in leading the charge?
