  • (Forum)

19:47:32 From carole blueweiss to Everyone:

  • I would love to leave Facebook and do not support mark Z BUT it’s the only way I have to get the podcast out there into groups where I am a member. But if there is another way…I’m open

19:48:09 From Andre to Everyone:

  • ditto

19:50:44 From carole blueweiss to Everyone:

  • Having this great group of podcasters is priceless and the thought that people split…I hope we can find something that is simple

19:51:01 From Anette Carlisle to Everyone:

19:53:08 From David Nebinski to Everyone:

  • Well said Maria!

19:53:27 From Hernán Braberman - BRANDERMAN to Everyone:

19:53:53 From Anette Carlisle to Everyone:

19:54:36 From Adam Greenberg to Everyone:

  • Agree with Danny, thanks Craig. Look forward to exploring the site

19:55:00 From Jule Kucera: Reflections to Everyone:

  • I may be one of the few people glad that FL is closing as I felt torn between how to spend my time between Craig’s Podcast community (which has podcaster-centric value) and FL where I felt emotional commitment/attachment.

19:55:08 From Christi Cassidy to Everyone:

19:55:28 From Linda McLachlan (THE ARENA) to Everyone:

  • Agree @jule

19:55:44 From Pej Onile-Ere to Everyone:

19:55:48 From Jule Kucera: Reflections to Everyone:

  • Craig has customized the platform to have features that weren’t in FL

19:55:49 From Libba Pinchot, to Everyone:

  • Not using Facebook for reasons Annie Parnell said well.  Using LInkedIn for connections (more of my audience is there), and learning to use Mighty Networks which has great potential for community building but takes focus and effort to be effective.

19:57:09 From Boston Blake - Mythic to Everyone:

  • @libba, Agreed about LinkedIn. I have a Mighty Network and it’s great tech. Trying to figure out how to make it self-sustaining. https://mythic-network.com

  • Thank you everyone for the call! I have to run now 🙂

19:58:06 From David Reynolds to Everyone:

  • Plug for Podcaster Community

19:58:08 From Mark - Heavy Hitter Sports to Everyone:

  • I too used LinkedIn primary for promotion purposes. Would love to divest entirely from Facebook given my distaste for Zuckerberg as well.

19:58:32 From Bruce Devereux to Everyone:

  • Craig’s Cozy Corner

19:58:35 From Mark Tweddle - Connection Requested to Everyone:
