The Tragic Demise of Yahoo!Groups

Jan 3, 2020

Ninteen years ago this very day, I started a Yahoo group to update you wonderful musicians about new material here.

At the time, Yahoo Groups was the place to be; the happening hot-spot on the internet. And it’s how most of you still get my updates.

Nineteen years. **sigh**

As of December they’ve made some really weird changes that make their service basically useless for this site. Soooooo….

The use of Yahoo Groups is being discontinued for site updates.

What this means: To continue to receive updates for this site, you need to use the “Send Me Updates!” form below.

(If you’re already subscribed to my blog, you don’t need to re-subscribe.)

Send Me Updates!

Enter your e-mail address in the box below and I'll send you updates! (They're free too. ๐Ÿ˜‰ )

You should receive a confirmation e-mail shortly. If you don't, be sure to check your "Spam" box.

The upside: Only one mailing list for me to update. I will no longer be maintaining two separate mailing lists.ย 

The downside: You will have to put up with occasional blog updates. Usually one or two extra e-mails per month–I’m not a prolific blogger–and you can always just hit “delete.”ย  (Delete buttons are nice.) I’ll make sure to clearly label new music posts so you know which ones they are.

The bright side: The music is still free. ๐Ÿ™‚

The bottom line:

If you want to keep receiving updates (and you’re not already a blog subscriber), submit the “Send Me Updates!” form.

Happy New Year!

Yippee!
