Full Geek Estate Text Via Email
I hate being a hypocrite, and I just realized I’ve been one when it comes to email updates on this site. You see, when I sign up for something via email elsewhere on the web and the emails make me click through to the website to see the entire text, I get annoyed. Yet that’s exactly the way Geek Estate has been since all the links for email updates on this site currently go to an AWeber form. Aweber is setup to send only partial text and then a link to the site for the full article.
For those of you who want full posts via email, here is the feedburner form to use:
Enjoy!
