hi
everybody, below is an example of the automated email sent out by Blogger.com.
as you can see, it has the content of the blog post, along with a link to the
blog at the bottom.
this is a
case of "spoofing" being used for the forces of good: it LOOKS like it was sent
by me, and so the listserve agreed to accept it, but in fact it was sent by
Blogger pretending to be me.
also, you
will see that it has [OU...Online] in the Subject line. this is what will appear
in the subject line of the emails that are blog notifications from Blogger,
allowing you to set up a rule that will route these into a specific folder,
trash them if you do not want this notification, etc.
I hope you
all find this useful - and please do let me know what you think, or if you have
questions about this -
Laura
probably some of you are familiar with the
great website maintained by lii.org: Librarians' Index to the
Internet. well, they are also a perfect example of a group that is
great to SUBSCRIBE to: lots of intriguing new resources to check out every week
if a title catches your eye!
here is the webpage that
shows what is new this week:
http://lii.org/search/ntw
they will send it to you as
an email
subscription
but they are also preaching the gospel of
RSS!
they are recommending Bloglines.com too: I feel so affirmed! :-)
