Re: [Digital BW] Will this forum ever get streamlined?

Jeff,

OK, I can see that if you are only looking for info, the forum format may 
allow you to read stuff on that subject more quickly, if it is there, but if 
you are reading posts in order to help people, or to improve your knowledge 
of color management/digital photography generally, the forum format is 
useless.

I suggest you will get less help on a forum, since fewer people will read 
your plea for help, but if you are only wanting to look at other people's 
pleas for help, it will be easier to find them on a forum, but as I said at 
the beginning of this sentence, they will be fewer and probably less useful 
than if you posted your question on a list like this.

Yahoo is just one big mess of a list. So, in a commercial forum, if
you are only looking for information about using eboni on your 2200,
there would be little reason to find and open the thread
entitled "roll paper," located under the "Paper" category. You would
more likely look under a category called "Third Party Inks," or you
could simply perform a search on eboni, 2200 or both.

Beats having to read the title of every single thread in the
database...
