That's true. A lot of the students seem to have migrated to many of the new
social networking sites like Livejournal & Facebook.

The Facebook group 'Alpha Phi Omega--Global' currently has 3,326 members,
and popped up basically this summer. Despite the large size, though, I
haven't seen too much actual discussion in the discussion boards. A little,
but not quite so much.

There's also a Livejournal group here:

http://community.livejournal.com/alpha_phi_omega/

It seems to get a bit more discussion. But it's still pretty early in the
semester,... A lot of students seem to go 'incognito' over the summer
months,...

There's another email list, too, on yahoo groups.
AlphaPhiOmega@yahoogroups.com:

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/AlphaPhiOmega/

List currently has 1,062 members on it, and probably mostly alumni. There's
also a pretty good number of Filipino members there, too.

The yahoo groups list is currently advertised on apo.org as the 'alumni
email list': http://www.apo.org/show/Alumni_Resources/Alumni_Email_List ...
Strange, APO-L isn't even mentioned anywhere on apo.org.
