[nabs-l] Subscribing to The Student Slate

[Tony Olivero]

Roanna,

I have added your e-mail to the NABS mailing list.

For everyone's information,and to clarify, the subscribe link you
clicked on brings you to what's called an RSS feed. You can add the
slate pages to a feed reader like you would a blog or news site.
Whenever a new issue is posted you would automatically see it in your
reader. I realize the language is confusing, and this week I will do
the following two things:

1. Change the language of that button to be a little more clear; and
2. Get the module fixed that allows you to add yourself to that mailing list.

Sorry for any confusion. Thanks for asking the question so we can make
it easy for everyone.

Have a great day.

Tony Olivero, Webmaster
 National Association of Blind Students
