Well, perhaps Surly will at some point weigh in with his opinion on how this Medium page came to be in existence.  I've never been able to work out the secret to drawing a large readership.  Early on before Social Media came around, I used to participate on a dozen reasonably popular and well read collapse websites, and I would regularly drop on links to my latest blog or embed my most recent video.  It was very time consuming work, which garnered a regular base of maybe 2000 readers who visited the Diner once a week or so and read a couple of pages.   YouTube got about 450 subscribers.  My biggest audio interview with Nicole Foss got around 6000 listens the last time I checked.  Most got a couple of hundred or so.

I'm definitely not up to cruising around other collapse websites anymore, if any exist that are even worthwhile to spend time on.  I never liked Facebook or social media in general, which is why Surly ran that branch of the Diner franchise.  Whatever it is you are supposed to do for SEO, I'm either not doing it right or my efforts have been undermined over the years, which is entirely possible and does not cause me any Cognitive Dissonance.  Thus I am not surprised it's hard to find our little forum here now, or that Google searches don't turn it up unless you already know it's here and adjust your search terms to find it.

So the question is, besides complain about the fact it's hard to find us, what do you propose to do about it?  Start an email chain letter maybe?  Whatever it is, from my end it has to cost $0 and take no more than 15 min of point and click linking per day.
