Thanks Ed,
I am a PTG member, I do read both lists, but the new one less often, primarily because I find the degree of latency in navigating through the new site frustrating.  I've always assumed that participation was open to non-PTG members, until I decided to see what would happen if I approached the site as if I were not a member.  I ended up at the "Join the PTG community" page, it was not completely clear to me, from the content of the page, that this was not the beginning of an application process for associate membership.  Thus my question below.

Dear Floyd, Non-members may participate in the new Web Site, as was mentioned on this list very recently. Check the archives for instructions. You will find many excellent piano technicians participating in the new communications technology. Phil Bondi has just posted a very candid report about his experiences at the HL users conference, worth reading if you want to learn about where the site development is going. When I first read the pianotech list, I had to go to the library and have the librarian log me on. I did not know how to use email. I learned, and am now learning to use the new media site. I find it faster to read than this list. I recommend learning. Please sign on.

I read it via the archives, and it is much faster to access. I agree that is it is less fragmented. Can non-PTG members participate in the new list, or only read it? I appreciate the breadth of the user base on this list. >Floyd Gadd >Manitoba Chapter
