I recently set up a Google Group and a Twitter feed

You can find it here

http://aspietribe.com

I am willing to syndicate RSS feeds from original hub members to the Aspie Tribe Twitter feed

I am looking for writers and contributors

Thanks

Mark

Looks exactly the same as the old hub to me. Mr/Mrs Especially freshly registered to make your comment.

Yeah definitely dodgy - they added that Mark Ty-Wharton fella to the feed LOL

Really guys, does it matter?

Someone has resumed the service!

Saved me from doing it :-)

So lets not knock it eh?

Hats off to the man or woman who did it :lol:

Actually, that's not the old Hub. Quite a few blogs are missing, and some extra ones have been added. Including frigging Autism Speaks, and a certain autism hate site.

As far as I can tell, this is probably a knockoff or perhaps even plagiarized site.

It is. A knockoff, that is, and not even a well-made one.

Info on why the Hub is gone for the time being: http://leftbrainrightbrain.co.uk/2010/0 ... utism-hub/

A more balanced picture of what happened to the hub is available here

Come on, dude, that's less balanced than Fox News and NPR put together.

You want to be correct, you need to say, "my opinion about..." because that's what it is.

I think 'screamingly tendentious hyperbole' is more apt than 'my opinion'

I like how the Autism Speaks USA link there has a dollar sign next to it.
