Business Examiner Daily gets RSS
The Business Examiner has joined the ranks other other local
publications that now allow anonymous sampling/obsessing of their content via
RSS. Their "BE Daily" now has feeds for the taking. No full-text
included nor is the content broken down into categories but we'll take
it!
Click the orange "feed" button to see what your browser does with it. Chances are, given that you use something cool like Firefox to browse the web, it'll give you options of what to do with it. If RSS isn't your thing (you can learn about it here -- didn't your mom ever tell you to "look it up!") or you don't know what to do with them to begin with, there's a good ol' fashioned email subscription option available.
Oh, and their business news is pretty good too. ;)

I don't have to concern myself with RSS, they send me the newspaper every week. No, I don't subscribe, they WANT me to subscribe and send samples to tempt me.
Uh, I gave up my home business thirteen months ago; y'all barkin' up the wrong cat...

RSS is awesome. The images and layout of their newsletter... not so much. I thought site crafting just hired a bunch of designers... whats the deal?

Mr. Anderson: You should read this (http://www.sitecrafting.com/blog/email-newsletters-in-outlook-2007/) to learn how Outlook 2007 completely neuters any CSS or advanced layouts in email. Blame M$, not SC.

Good point Kevin. Though the world is starting to wake up to the microsloth... I'm just sad my preview pane in thunderbird is filled up with huge empty boxes of 'images not seen to prevent identification...' instead of something more interesting like the headline summary quick jumps. Also a note to outside readers: If you have an email newsletter and you love your subscribers please consider a text only version.
text is tons better too if you're offering people paid advertisement. All that information in the graphics is completely invisible to the great sightless eye of google (I mean not even alt text? seriously).
in conclusion: 1) Love is a two way street. 2) Be the changes you want to see in others. 3) Be your own unique snowflake, we can do better... don't be microsoft. :)

I should *totally* go back to ASCII! That stuff used to rule back in the BBS days!

Geek alert.
Ok guys. Put down your light sabers. Let's just call it a draw and say you can both write killer code and both adore Linux.
