Yahoo Groups, How Tae Sign Up

Yahoo Groups provide us with the Blairfolk Mailing List free of charge so that people with an interest in Blairgowrie and places around it in Perthshire can communicate with each other. They make their money by inserting a wee advert into each e-mail, but it's no bother and even contains interesting information sometimes. The business of joining up is no problem. There are two parts to it and it takes just a wee minute to do both.

  • The first part is to subscribe to the Yahoo and get yourself a Yahoo identity. If you have not done this already you can subscribe by clicking here. It's free.
  • The second part is to subscribe to the Blairfolk list itself in Yahoo Groups.
  • You can do this by entering your email address in the space below and submitting it by clicking the button to the right. After that, follow the instuctions.

Join Blairfolk here

If that is too formidable and you would like to do it the easy peasy way, e-mail me by clicking this link, Blairfolk-owner@yahoogroups.com and tell me that you want to join and what e-mail address you want to use. I will arrange for an e-mailed invitation to join to be sent to you. All you have to do then is reply to that e-mail by hitting the "reply" button on your e-mail programme, and you are in!

 

Privacy

Just a wee word about privacy and Blair Folk. People from Blairgowrie are not all screaming extraverts. There's no problem with going under a pseudonym if you want. Also, you really only have to give scant personal details to join Yahoo Groups.
