::scr Thread fadeout vs. permanence



You know how it is. You're busily contributing to an interesting thread.
Good discussion is going on. The thread peaks, and after that the volume of
messages on that topic shrinks and eventually fades away to nothing as
people move onto talking about other things, or get distracted, or forget to
post replies. A month later, the thread that really interested you is
ancient history.

Then, maybe six months later, you think of something on the same topic, and
want to talk about it. So you have to go diggin' in the crates to see where
people left off, or start the topic again, which may lead to familiar ground
being retread.

With this in mind: ScrWiki.

Database, whiteboard, forum - it's whatever you make it. You can parallel
current discussions here, or dig up old ones, or branch out on new ones,
whatever. Knock yourself out.
