Are there too many birding forums in Ohio? Is activity on this listserv slowing down because people are turning to the Facebook Group instead? The data so far say "no: http://mostlybirds.wordpress.com/2012/10/19/too-many-birding-forums-in-ohio/ To compare activity in the Facebook group vs. this listserv, I noted a few milestones in growth of the Birding Ohio group (by searching for keyword "members" and noting dates and membership sizes mentioned) and I noted the number of posts per month on the OHIO-BIRDS archives over the past 6 years. You can see a plot of those data at the link above. So far, having more places to discuss birds and birding simply means more discussions about birds.
