Introduction

The BTN Master/Ph.D. online group started in January 2007 with the objective of creating a network among us. As the Google Groups membership gets larger and more diverse, we can expect more discussions and information interchange. As of May 29, 2007, the e-group is subscribed by 340 recipients (based on email addresses).

There will always be response from other members whenever we post questions at the group, either via individual correspondence, or shared among all of the group subscribers. This is great! However, it does at times create annoyance among subscribers not sharing similar interests in the topics discussed or highlighted, receiving all the messages sent to the group.

Individual correspondence among individuals is sometimes the preferred mode of communications. Wouldn't it be nice if some of the information we have can be shared and benefit more people? But at the same time, we do not want to "spam" the mailbox of our friends in this group, so to speak.

The solution - blogging!

With the creation of this blog, let's have more members volunteering to write (about anything) and share your views with others. It can be of diverse topics:

• individual response to the questions asked at the group,
• studying tips,
• experience at new university,
• events taking place near you,
• etc.

You are already a member of this group. Let's keep it going, ya.
