On Facebook the complete world is active. On IUOMA the ones who have chosen for this specific social network. So IUOMA is a small island, while Facebook is the complete world with all kind of subgroups that play together. On Facebook the company decides on the rules (and also the censorship and thise things), on IUOMA the moderator and groupowners can make their rules (and censor what they want).
Another difference. facebook is a commercial market. They earn on your interests and advertisings. IUOMA is a non-commercial activity (I don't get paid for the moderating the thing.....)
Hi Val, I can't believe I failed to write your full address properly, I send lots of parcels all the time and I'm usually really thorough... Anyway, I sent it originally on March 18th and it made it to where in France I don't know and was returned to me Mon 30th in the morning. As it hadn't been franked, I replaced wrong address with right address and put it back in the post in the afternoon at no extra cost. I'd completely forgotten about Easter as I eat chocolate all the time. Fingers crossed it's half way there already.
As I mentioned before, I cannot meet the deadline for your exhibition (due to circumstances...) but I am posting a photo to you so you know what my bit will look like when it comes. Just the sketch, of course, as I have some layers to do to get a white surface. Although, now that I think about it, maybe I don't want a fully white surface. I did, however, fill the hole with a homemade modeling compound. It will be too late, but I did promise to send one to you.
I just realized, i don't know how to send the photo into messages. hmmmmm
OK. Figured it out.
I apologize for not getting it to you on time for your exhibition.

hahaha...yes indeed, Val,
be sure to save me a "lice" :-)
Hope your day is going splendidly.
Happy birthday my dear Valentine!
Nice! Those buskers are equally cool. Thanks
Hey Val! Are you still on break from mail art? Or can I start mailing you some artsy postcards again?
Enjoy YOUR day, my dear Valentine xxx

I hope one day he will return or that he finds a new platform to express his artistic thoughts and ideas. I for one will miss his daily updates.

Val, vinyl has been returned, think I wrote your address wrong, is there time for me to re-send? Sorry
OK, will do, but mail doesn't leave town here until Monday again.
Hi Val,

Thanks for the excellent print, Val! I also really enjoyed the bit of postal history you included. I hope to exchange mail art with you again. Peace!
Bonjour Val, received the black/gold hexaMailArt stamps. Merci beaucoup. #57 means sun. Sounds good ;)
