I wonder how many 11:37 p.m.’s I’ve experienced in my life?

Too many.

Not nearly enough.

How to Subscribe to a Blog

In HowTo on March 30, 2008 at 7:59 am

A few people have e-mailed me asking either how they can subscribe to my blog, or even what it means to subscribe to mine or any other blog.

So here’s the deal. Over in the column on the right, right beneath the lovely mug shot o’ moi, is a box that says SUBSCRIBE TO “SUDDENLY CHRISTIAN.” That text is a link. If you click on that link, you’ll see how easy it is to subscribe to this blog. ”Subscribing” to a blog means getting everything new that’s written on a blog sent directly to you as an email. This allows you to keep up on the blog without ever having to actually visit that blog’s website address, since all of its new content is already being sent to you! In the case of this blog, every time I write something new on it, you’ll get an email with the subject line “Suddenly Christian.” When you open that email, you’ll see the content of my latest post in the same place you’d expect to see the text of any email. That’s it! Subscribing to a blog is absurdly easy, free, and does NOT result in any junk mail, or anything like that: your email address is ONLY used to send you blog updates. It’s just a wonderful, hassle-free use of the web.

On a more personal note, I love  it when people subscribe to my blog, because it means they’re willing to make me a part of their … well, lives, basically. Which of course is an honor. So subscribe, already! If you don’t like it, you can always, with a touch, unsubscribe. So go! Do! Have me regularly invade your inbox! Thanks!

 P.S. I’m gonna make all of this text part of the “Subscribe” link, so it’ll always be there with it. Groovy.
