Yahoo e-group and this blog

You should be getting your invite soon for the e-group. There are a couple of addresses to know:

Post message:
hudsontogaza@yahoogroups.com
Unsubscribe:
hudsontogaza-unsubscribe@yahoogroups.com

The e-group will have a homepage:
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/hudsontogaza

If you choose to have a Yahoo username and password, you can use this page to read all new e-mails and search past ones. That would be handy in an Internet cafe in Egypt or Gaza. Of course, you can also access these e-mail messages from your web based server (like www.earthlink.net). If you just want to get and send e-mails to the e-group, you don't have to join Yahoo or remember a Yahoo username and password. Most people use web based e-mail, but make sure you know the username and password for your existing account.

Not to complicate things, but we also have this blog:
http://www.hudsontogaza.blogspot.com/

The e-group can only be read by people going on the trip. The blog is for people following our trip from back home, and can be read by the entire Internet. It is mostly for a joint record that can be read even after we get back. I will invite everyone going on the trip as co-authors. Join if you want to make public comments or upload pictures for those back home. I will ask Jack Smith to send the blog out to his huge list. Posting on it will take a username and password.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Nice talking to everyone tonight.

Fred
