First, thanks for all your work - great to still have a bulletin going. I think it's still a useful tool, especially within the WCN network. Very pro streamlining and combining the website and current bulletin. I think the bulletin is a useful tool (although Jarren makes some good points, we definitely need to make it smartphone accessible), but it's time we create more crossover and reinvigorate both website + newsletter. We might consider something that works along Mailchimp's lines (but perhaps an open source alternative?) that allows quick and easy content creation/editing and automated contact management; social media integration; smartphone accessibility etc. The editorial tasks would change little, but you'd be streamlining and freeing up more time to put into the CB website, and interlinking more between the two, driving traffic to both. Evaluating the bulletin and CB website could be a good starting point, to see what people find useful, and how they want their content... (excuse me if any of these thoughts have already been suggested/implemented - I struggle to keep up with the list) At the moment I'm not going to be able to help out with this. Not sure how useful it is, but will try to keep pitching in with ideas...

If it is desirable to keep, are there people<br> around who have the will and the energy to help make it happen?<br> <blockquote type="cite"><br> I'm happy to put in effort here - but it will be conditional on having a<br> </blockquote> strategy that works. However if it is time to decide to put this on the<br> backburner for now, and pursue other activities supportive of carfree causes,<br> i'm happy to hear what people think. if there is little comment and mostly<br> silence concerning this email, that is a kind of answer too.<br> <blockquote type="cite"><br> Thanks,<br> Justin<br> <br> --<br> --<br> You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google<br> Groups "World Carfree Network" group.<br> To post to this group, send email to <<a moz-do-not-send="true" href="mailto:carfree_network-/[email protected]" target="_blank">mailto:carfree_network-/[email protected]</a>><a moz-do-not-send="true" href="mailto:carfree_network-/[email protected]" target="_blank">carfree_network-/[email protected]</a><br> Replies are sent to the author of the message.<br> To unsubscribe from this group, send email to<br> <<a moz-do-not-send="true" href="mailto:carfree_network-unsubscribe-/[email protected]" target="_blank">mailto:carfree_network-unsubscribe-/[email protected]</a>><a moz-do-not-send="true" href="mailto:carfree_network-unsubscribe-/[email protected]" target="_blank">carfree_network-unsubscribe-/[email protected]</a><br> For more options, visit this group at<br> <<<a moz-do-not-send="true" href="http://groups.google.com/group/carfree_network?hl=en?hl=en" target="_blank">http://groups.google.com/group/carfree_network?hl=en?hl=en</a>><a moz-do-not-send="true" href="http://groups.google.com/group/carfree_network?hl=en?hl=en" target="_blank">http://groups.google.com/group/carfree_network?hl=en?hl=en</a>><a moz-do-not-send="true" href="http://groups.google.com/group/carfree_network?hl=en?" target="_blank">http://groups.google.com/group/carfree_network?hl=en?</a>hl=en<br> ---<br> You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups<br> </blockquote> "World Carfree Network" group.<br> <blockquote type="cite">To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an<br> </blockquote> email to <mailto:<a moz-do-not-send="true" href="mailto:carfree_network%252Bunsubscribe@" target="_blank">carfree_network%2Bunsubscribe@</a><a moz-do-not-send="true" href="http://googlegroups.com" target="_blank">googlegroups.com</a>><a moz-do-not-send="true" href="mailto:carfree_network+unsubscribe-/[email protected]" target="_blank">carfree_network+unsubscribe-/[email protected]</a>.<br> <blockquote type="cite">For more options, visit<br> </blockquote> <<<a moz-do-not-send="true" href="https://groups.google.com/groups/opt_out" target="_blank">https://groups.google.com/groups/opt_out</a>><a moz-do-not-send="true" href="https://groups.google.com/groups/opt_out" target="_blank">https://groups.google.com/groups/opt_out</a>><a moz-do-not-send="true" href="https://groups.google.com/groups/opt_out" target="_blank">https://groups.google.com/groups/opt_out</a>.<br> <blockquote type="cite"><br> <br> </blockquote> <br> <br> <br> ----- ### -----<br> J.H.
