For those of you who've just been added, welcome to the Internet Connection's "SpotLite" mailing list. We'll be sending "SpotLite" out about once a week to let you know what's new at the Internet Connection - conferences and guests, new and interesting software and files, upcoming events, contests, and more. The most exciting part of being online is communication, so we'd like to encourage your response and participation. Let us know what you'd like to see in the Internet Connection, who you'd like us to interview, good files for our Software Library, and what you'd like to discuss about the Internet.
[As always, if you would like to be removed from this list, simply click on the "Reply" button and type "No, thanks" in the message body.]
