group admin in the era of facebook

Posted on 4 April 201424 August 2022 By antipaucity 3 Comments on group admin in the era of facebook

Along the difficulties of initially building a good group/community, comes the hassles of managing said [virtual] community – especially on the book of the face. I am a coadmin on the Ontario & Western Railways Historical Society Inc Facebook group. My friend Peter is a coadmin of the Linux Mint group. Something both of us…

delivering solutions – “shipping is a feature!”

Posted on 18 March 20135 August 2022 By antipaucity 4 Comments on delivering solutions – “shipping is a feature!”

http is a stateless protocol

Posted on 23 September 201121 January 2020 By antipaucity No Comments on http is a stateless protocol
