Oh dear. The home page's Latest News is 3 years old and it says 'We're very much alive!'. Doesn't sound like it to me. Wait! they have meetings. Oh dear. It says 'Attendees (0)'. Maybe I'll register anyway. Strange! I've filled this form in and submitted it 5 times and it just keeps coming back blank whatever I write. Oh well, I guess this website is dead" I see from the mailing list archives that there has been talk of overhauling the website. In the meantime, I agree with people who have said it would be better to have a single static web page. Maybe have a link to the old site for anyone who wants to read the old articles. This works perfectly well for other local groups like Refresh who have a good turnout to their monthly meetings. Nobody asks why a web design group has a one page website, as long as they can find the mailing list and the meetings. <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://www.refreshcambridge.org/">http://www.refreshcambridge.org/</a> This has been going on for years... <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://lists.infowares.com/archive/clug/2006-October/005702.html">http://lists.infowares.com/archive/clug/2006-October/005702.html</a> ...and someone has even posted the HTML page: <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://lists.infowares.com/archive/clug/2008-May/006749.html">http://lists.infowares.com/archive/clug/2008-May/006749.html</a> In my experience, the current website is doing more harm than good, unless you want to scare off new members.
