On My End
Matt Alberts weekly@webcom.com
This issue has come to you on time, as promised. I hope all of
the new subscribers will enjoy this standard issue. If not, I
will see unsubscriptions flying into the mailbox tomorrow.
WBAds
WBAds will be a sister publication to the Weekly Bookmark. I
have received a lot of feedback from users requesting that I
continue to include business advertising and other business
submissions. I have decided that I will begin accepting
business submissions after I have established a second mailing
list. WBAds will allow any type of commercial advertisements
for any product or service (that isn't sexual in nature). This
will be a place to advertise specials on products or services,
new products, or a new business online.
What I am looking for in the next couple of weeks is two people
who will absorb the cost of a new mailing list. For half of the
cost of a new mailing list, this supporter will receive an
advertisement for aproximately 6 months on the WBAds home page,
and every issue that gets sent out. In summary, 26 issues with
your ad inside, archives that will contain your advertisment
well into the future, and a possibility of a submission each
week (for weekly or monthly specials). As soon as I have
secured the two sponsors, I will notify everyone for
subscriptions and more information about submissions.
To become a sponsor, contact wb-ads@webcom.com for more
information.
Coming Up!
Taxes - Information is out there and help could be on the way, if you
only knew where it was. Look for the article in the next couple
of weeks.
Political Campaigns - Information on the candidates and how they are
doing as the primaries finish up in early April.
For now, enjoy this issue of the Weekly Bookmark!
