People don't like to accept but email and email lists are still the fundamental ways people collaborate on important and personal matters. Even though Yahoo and Google groups are not being talked about much, it wouldn't hurt if someone innovate on top of those same old method of communication.
Ultimately, it doesn't matter if data (email) is pushed to the user or user is pushed to the date (website). What matters is the quality and integrity of the content and communication platform. If people feel comfortable using your service, if your service is easy enough for them to use, you win.
agreed and that is what we are trying to build. something that is a super simple execution of a core notion and build out from there. email is great for direct communication but social conversation naturally branches and add in lots of folks it gets unmanageable to track.
soon we are going to integrate tighter into email so people can have the convenience of replying via email if they want but also to be able to go to the site for a richer experience.
