[Corpora-List] how many subscribers are there on corpora-list?

[Krishnamurthy, Ramesh]

Hi all

I asked this question because someone asked a question
on the Corpus Linguistics group page in Facebook, and I
suggested that they might reach a greater number of
potential respondents if they posted it on corpora-list
instead... I was then asked if i knew the number of
subscribers to corpora-list...

The Facebook group gives its number of MEMBERS as 962,
so I wondered if there was an easy way to find out how
many people SUBSCRIBE to corpora-list, just as a general
indication. If there is a massive difference in the numbers,
as i suspect, then I will continue to advise people to
post here if they do not get a satisfying answer on
Facebook.

I don't know enough about the technologies involved in
Facebook or corpora-list to know how easy or difficult
it is for non-members/subscribers to access their contents.
If it is easier to access material on corpora-list, then in
a sense that answers my question in another way? :)

I do know that members/subscribers are numbers
we can get hold of, even if they are only very rough
indicators of anything else. Many members/subscribers
do not seem to be active posters, either on Facebook or
on corpora-list, but who knows, they may be avidly reading
every post...

Meanwhile I, and a few other 'usual suspects' will no doubt
continue to

best
Ramesh
