So, if I'm going to do a draft, I do it on my test blog. When it's ready, I copy it to my recipe blog and publish.<BR/><BR/>C&Z uses PHPList, which is a set of PHP scripts that you host on your own server. I don't know how well it is working for Clotilde, but she's had it going for quite a while.Elisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13924741708406041795noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12044784.post-1113339972593574412005-04-12T14:06:00.000-07:002005-04-12T14:06:00.000-07:00And I am suffering from fingers typing in the wron...And I am suffering from fingers typing in the wrong direction.

They maintain the mailing list for you, but you can download a back-up of the whole list (names & addresses) anytime you want. I was thinking about just doing a monthly newletter I don't think I can handle anything more!Amy Shermanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16899745451564919389noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12044784.post-1113322679740147852005-04-12T09:17:00.000-07:002005-04-12T09:17:00.000-07:00Yes, just as in Yahoo mail there is a little line ...Yes, just as in Yahoo mail there is a little line of ad text at the bottom of just about every transmission. The sign up form also has a huge Bravenet logo on it. I guess it's a small price to pay for a free mailing list.<BR/><BR/>On the test blog issue I HIGHLY recommend all bloggers get one. Use it as a place to try stuff out and see how it works before messing with your own blog. It will save you a lot of grief!Amy Shermanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16899745451564919389noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12044784.post-1113322258375869372005-04-12T09:10:00.000-07:002005-04-12T09:10:00.000-07:00Great question Amy.

Can you describe a little about the ugly Bravenet Ads? <BR/><BR/>Are they embedded in the mail that goes out to subscribers? If so how? And what kinds of things are the ads for?<BR/><BR/>+ readers please note - Amy left a hint of a very good idea in her question. Sounds like she has a "test blog", which sounds pretty smart to me.Samhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07081680210434938456noreply@blogger.com
