Sunday Mail: January 20, 2008

Posting a cartoon every weekday leaves no room for me to simply share news, ideas, and other stuff with you. So welcome to 'Sunday Mail: Letters from Dry Bones', the new, once-a-week Dry Bones feature.

Item One: Face Places! Social Networking?!!
MyPlace? Facebook? I have tried my best to ignore the spread of these online communities ...but more and more folks are opting in.

In the beginning, not long after I started the Dry Bones blog, a friend whined that it was too much trouble to check in with her web browser. She wanted it sent to her by email! And so we searched and searched and found a way to provide the stuff by email.

But two years have slipped by and the girl is now pushing me to find a way to supply her, and other facebook folks, with the daily Dry Bones "fix".

Are you on Facebook? Any tips, ideas, aps, or advice would be greatly appreciated!

Item Two: January Clearance Sales?!! Weird how the Internet becomes more and more like the "Real World". It turns out that on the Net, January is also the best time to buy stuff due to post-holiday clearance sales! Check out this link for discounts of up to 70% on products and software related to Israel, learning Hebrew, the Bible and more. Get your goodies now before they put the prices back up again!Jewish Software January Sale
