Good post

Facebook is not to be trusted

With a little effort, FreeRepublic could BECOME a better (and more free) version of Facebook.

It was here BEFORE all these place and JimRob should have been an internet billionaire.

But at least he didn’t sell out to ‘the man’

It would have to completely change platforms. As long as you have to actually type in html code to get pictures to show up, and still CAN’T post youtube videos, but only cut and paste links, it’s not ready for prime time.

When people that are used to modern forum site engines see how this site works, they react a bit more negatively than those of us who have been here a long time. We’re used to tht quirks and work arounds to get stuff to work. They are not and for many of them it’s a show stopper.

Actually it would take a lot of effort and a lot of money. The best way to monetize FR is to sell content. I don't think the Jim is into that, I'm sure he likes money, but I don't think he likes that.
