A new feature has been added to DeafROC.com. You can now sign up to receive emails whenever something new has been added to the site. Just click on the link that says “Subscribe to DeafROC by Email” (under SUBSCRIBE at the top of the right column). It will take you to another page where you type in your email address and the special code they give you. Then you will get an email to confirm that you want to be on the list; be sure to click the link in that email to confirm your subscription. Thank you to reader Wendy Dannels for suggesting the addition of this service.

UPDATE: I wasn’t sure how this was going to work, whether the service would send an email each time something new was added, whether they would only send the link, etc.  Now that I’ve signed up, I  see how it works.  They send one email per day with all the full posts from that day along with any illustrations.  It’s pretty neat and I encourage readers to sign up so they won’t miss any news in DeafROC.com.
