Not me. I registered right after Jan talked to the Villages Computer Club on July 27, 2007. If you registered and mentioned that you were at the VCC meeting when Jan talked about TOTV, you were in a drawing for a trip. I did not win. :'(

Incidentally, check out the VCC for those already not in it. Great source of information on computers.

On your other question, check this out. Scroll to near the bottom-- https://www.talkofthevillages.com/sm...p?action=stats

Donna, Tal's link should almost tell you who were the original members. There are a few more people coming up close to 500.

Tal, you've been busy since July 07. You post 4.7 per day??? WOW!!

Congratulations everybody. Good job... 040 040

That's an average. I do not use TOTV that much when visiting in the Tampa Bay area as I am usually without my own computer at those times. Since July 27, 2007 those visits have taken up about a month of days when I could only get to a computer about 1.5 hours per day excluding Sundays and holidays.

I have also deleted about 50 of my messages over that period.

Looking at the stat page, what I see thats most impressive is 108 pages of members, but only 31 pages of members who have posted. So we have 77 pages of members who have never posted. ???

They are either lurkers or came once or twice and never returned. It is normal for there to be more lurkers then posters. I think they may be shy or just don't have anything to say.

I registered on July 30, 2007. I had visited this site when it was announced but kept forgetting to come back. My brother-in-law who wants to move down here mentioned it to me one day and I visited and liked it and joined.

I enjoy the people and the posts. Lots of good info in TOTV.

One of the first ones, jjdees. :bigthumbsup: How did you learn about TOTV? I had not heard of it before Jan's talk about TOTV to the Villages Computer Club on July 27, 2007. They do not talk about TOTV at Doggie Doo Run Run dog park (they are more interested in talking about doggies there) , nor at the various movie theaters in and around TV, nor at the various public libraries around TV, nor at the parks, nor had I seen anything at the two town squares about TOTV. :dontknow:

Been visiting TOTV since March 2, 2007. Seems longer to me. At our age...the passing of time feeling longer is a good thing I think. For some weird reason....Harry Chapin's song "All My Life's A Circle" is running through my mind.

All my life's a circle;
Sunrise and sundown;
Moon rolls thru the nighttime;
Till the daybreak comes around.

All my life's a circle;
But I can't tell you why;
Season's spinning round again;
The years keep rollin' by.

It seems like I've been here before;
I can't remember when;
But I have this funny feeling;
That we'll all be together again.
No straight lines make up my life;
And all my roads have bends;
There's no clear-cut beginnings;
And so far no dead-ends.

Z, can't say as I remember that song, can you post a link to him singing it? Just thought if it's one of your fav's you might have a link handy.

OMG, I just looked at Tal's link and I'm one of the top 10 posters. 024 That was way more information than I wanted. I am immediately divorcing my computer and TOTV.

On the other hand, I bet Handie, Donna and Villages07 are making Chat Room history books. :bigthumbsup:

[Donna]

OMG..Barefoot is right..

If I print out all my posts, there will be more pages than "War and Peace"... 024

:yikes:

Are they MASTERPIECES OF EPIC STORYTELLING, some how I doubt it... :
