It's no business of mine if a gmail user gets ads shoved in front of them, but I certainly don't want gmail's ads being shoved in front of ME simply because I happen to be on the same list with a gmail user.
I'd assume the pool of eyeballs available here on the GNHLUG list to be highly desirable to an advertiser, but Google has provided the GNHLUG with precisely nothing in return for access to those eyeballs. Of course, the fact that they're all likely to be obscenely rich after the imminent IPO has nothing to do with my total lack of sympathy toward them... ;-> FYI, I'm on another list which is hosted on some Yahoo machines in return for Yahoo being allowed to tack some relatively inoffensive ads onto the end of each msg, but that's OK because it's the price we pay for using their gear.. _______________________________________________ gnhlug-discuss mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss
