This month, the forum will be a year old although the idea for it was around in my head for a lot longer. I should really have taken the plunge a lot earlier but better late than never.
This month is the first month for the amended Five Questions, Answer by SnailMail. I hope it is liberating now the "Five Letters" minimum commitment is removed. However, I do expect those who've posted questions to answer at least one person's wonderings.
At some point I will open a languages section and teenage section. My knowledge of other languages is limited (fast alles vergessen for German but is far better than my knowledge of French) so I may need moderators for those sections. I wonder which languages members of this forum are fluent in.
I know some forums (fora?) have a fun and games section with word games. How would you feel about one opening here? The threads I've participated in elsewhere have been quite fun and educational!
It was suggested elsewhere a bit tongue-in-cheek (not serious) to have a snailmail podcast. It could be fun and is something to be considered. People outside the world of snail mail know me as a shy one, and I am so I am reluctant to have my face on the screen (we wouldn't want to break the lens). I struggle as is to regularly update my blogs (not just snailmail ones) so the best I think I would do for a regular podcast would be quarterly. Perhaps it doesn't have to be by me!
Thoughts and suggestions are welcome

Hi Mia,
I'm a brand new member, and I like the idea of a podcast. But you know, it doesn't HAVE to be a video podcast - it could be audio to start. I work in a call center, and I always tell my students it's good I have a pleasant voice, as I have a face for radio. :-)
You could always have a "phone in" episode with someone via Skype.
Just a thought. :-)
Regards, Jeff

I confess...I never did the five letter minimum to begin with.
