 DSA>> I guess it's also about your field of knowledge, if I have followed this
 DSA>> conversation correctly (I probably have t and if so pls excuse me). As
 DSA>> I'm not a tech/computer person, the very last thing I want to do is log
 DSA>> on to my laptop to have a quick chat with someone. I don't know all
these
 DSA>> other 'forums' and honestly don't have the time yet to learn about them.
 DSA>> Keeping up with my own field is challenging enough. And, for me, my
 DSA>> laptop is work only. After my PhD I'm severely allergic to it...even

 JD> Sharon,
 JD> The beauty of you being a part of this chat with Telegram is that you
really don't have to worry about it. it's something you already have and that
you're familiar with. Where the tension comes in is that the telegram chat is
connected to a different system of distribution of messages. It's an old
school system and technically challenging to get access to on a cellphone if
not through Telegram. 
 JD> Aftershock is a newish app to make it easier, but even that still
requires somewhat more effort than just joining the group through TG.
 JD> There are those who believe that if you haven't suffered through the
trials and tribulations of struggling to get it working "the old way" then
you're not worthy of taking part.
