Completely agree with Roy. What these e-mails on the NEARC list amounts to advertising. 600 words on a company blog is not pithy commentary on our industry; its a thinly veiled attempt to drive traffic to your commercial enterprise. @Matt, if you can't tell, Brett's most recent e-mail (on the 4th) reiterating the rules of this list - as a forum for non-commercial purposes - were directed primarily at *you; *there have been no other offenders of this policy in recent memory as other e-mails have been job postings, actual user questions, and e-mail based industry discussion. Please stop spamming this list. If you are so concerned about maintaining a connection to your readers and truly believe your blog is valuable divorced from your company, host it elsewhere and set up an RSS feed.
