Question about emailing blog entries

[Charles]

What do you guys think?

Should I have the VitalSelfDefense.com/blog email this discussion
group an email every time I post to the blog?

That would give us a chance to comment on the things we blog about,
but it would also muddy up this discussion forum with blog entries.

Depending on how much traffic we get with the Google group, it might
overload some people. I know that when I start getting too much stuff
from a listsrv, it quickly becomes material that I ignore.

[VITAL Self-Defense]

Yeah, it may be information overload like you said. I think I'll keep
it as is for right now.

Hopefully I can put out show 076 and 077 this weekend! They are
recorded, but I just need to do some post editing on them and release
them.

I got TONS of stuff to do this weekend. With the seminars coming up
in a few weeks, and Christie and my FAST combatives training next
weekend, I am hyper busy right now!

ONly a few people on forum and my email is getting pretty crowded -
if we have 200 people jumping in then it could be a mess. Perhaps
moderator could forward emailings that are extremely entertaining and
leave us to check occasionally web site for interesting topics.

I don't think we should include the blog with the emails. The discussion group should be limited to us discussing topics and sharing ideas. If we included the blog it would be way too many emails. Is there a way to post comments on the blog? If so, that would be the best option.

I'd say not to email every blog post.
We have the option of subscribing to the blog's feed (I'm using Google
Reader to do that)
Blog Feed: http://vitalsd.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/default

You can limit the number of emails you get from this group using the
"Edit my membership" option.
I use the email every post option
but if the group gets larger I'll use the 1 email per 25 posts
option.
