Back in the day, you used to be able to sign up for an email list to be told when there was a new Cry for Help. That function didn't survive the move to Movable Type two Octobers ago. However, with the rise of aggregators and rss-readers, it became something of a moot point. Well, to the technophiles in the audience, at least. There's an easier way, now.
I've stopped using bloglines, as the unread posts have piled up to over 1,000 now, and instead I've been using Thunderbird's built in RSS (Really Simple Syndication) functions, so new blog posts and news stories from Yahoo! and the ProJo just show up in my email app. It's pretty sweet. If you use TB and want to save yourself the trip of coming to this site, you can set up an RSS account to have all Cries for Help delivered to your inbox (how?

The ironic thing is that I originally started bil.com as a substitute for sending my friends cool links via email. Ah, how far we've come.
