I noticed today that about 45% of subscribers to this blog use the e-mail subscription option instead of RSS. While e-mail is definitely a good way to be notified of updates to the blog I would suggest that you learn about RSS and how it might lighten your inbox load.
The best explanation I have found so far is a 3 minute video called RSS in Plain English (the website also has links to information in other languages).
One advantage of RSS over e-mail notification is that your inbox is not filled with update notifications at inconvenient times. Using RSS you go to your RSS page (or reader application) when you want to.

About Me
I have been working with Smallworld products since 1996 and think there are many great things about them. Since then I have worked for GE for 6 years and for partner companies the rest of the time. Since January 2009 I have been working for iFactor Consulting. My main professional interests include:
- Improving Smallworld implementation quality
- Building Smallworld tools to make a customer's job easier
- Finding new and innovative uses for Safe Software's FME tool
- Contributing to the OpenStreetMap community and introducing its benefits to the Smallworld community.
- Using Google Earth to get geographic data out to the masses
- Finding GIS applications that help create a healthier world in which my family and future generations can live.
