New in this Newsletter: Share This

You may notice something new at the end of each article on this newsletter's web site at www.eogn.com: a link that is labeled "Share This." This new link gives you an easy way to send an article to a friend or post it to your own blog or Facebook account or elsewhere.

This new piece of software allows you to share articles from this newsletter with your friends via e-mail or to post it to your own blog (Facebook, Twitter, Wordpress, Typepad, Blogger, etc.) or to post it to any of the popular social networking sites (MySpace, LinkedIn, Digg, Google Bookmarks, etc.)

Using the "Share This" service is simple: click on the "Share This" link at the bottom of the article you wish to share with others, click on any one of the three tabs that appear (Social Web, Post, Send/Email), and then fill in the blanks. Finally, click on SHARE.

A link to the article (not the full text) will then be sent to whatever destination you have chosen: to an e-mail address, to a blog you maintain, or to a social networking site.

This new option should make it easier for you to share stories of interest with your friends and relatives.

Yippee! I am enjoying your posts to Facebook and have always wanted to share your blog with others. They don't know what they're missing and this will be an excellent tool to release them from that dark prison.

Gee I have been sharing for a long time with just a simple cut and paste to a blank e-mail. I have gotten several folks interested this way and they have started getting your blog.
Happy New Year everyone.
Janice
