Every week I see many posts made to the IMC mailing list announcing various 
events, giving pointers to information, and even discussing recent news 
that's off the mainstream radar.  But why only reach just 129 people when 
you can reach more than a thousand (in a day!)?

Please, please, please take advantage of the IMC website (www.ucimc.org) 
and post stuff to it.  This is YOUR forum, and visitors surf it to find out 
what YOU have to say.  If all we have on the Newswire is posts from the 
same 12 people from nowhere near Urbana then are we really providing much 
of a local service?  100,000 hits since Aug. 26 says there's an audience 
hungry for that service.

I know e-mail is easy, but posting to the website isn't much harder -- give 
it a try.  If anyone would like a demo, I'm willing to give it.

Thanks,

Paul
