Taylor Sent: Friday, June 03, 2011 6:23 PM To: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com Subject: A New List Moderator Who Is Making A Joyful Noise Hello Everyone, My name is Mark Taylor. Some of you may know me from my work on the Candle Shore BLOG. I am delighted to inform you that Cara, the proverbial matriarch of this list community has made me a list moderator. Cara and I have worked together on many projects during the past 5 years or so and we share the same vision for the environments in which we participate; said vision based on the premise that all questions are welcome. Support communities such as this one are crucial to the continued enrichment of our lives as we embrace some of the world's most amazing technologies that serve to level the proverbial playing field between us and our sighted counterparts and I, for one, want this playing field to remain a joyful place; not one in which we, as list members, take timid steps but, rather, one in which we make bold strides. Generally speaking, I operate from a position of "yes" and "yes we can" so if there is a way I can make your experience in this community more pleasant, please do not hesitate to let me know. As this is a high traffic list, it is easy to become overwhelmed. However, there are ways to reduce the amount of Inbox Fatigue such as switching your list membership to Digest mode or exploring new ways to skim through your Inbox. In episode 59 of the Candle Shore Podcast (18 minutes) I demonstrate how I use the Apple Mail client on my MacBook (with Snow Leopard) to quickly skim through hundreds and hundreds of messages in a matter of minutes.

Until further notice, effectively, Cara and I are the only two who will be moderating and approving new members so please be patient in this regard. When replying to others, please do your best to phrase the answer in such a way that others may more easily fathom the question; after all, we don't want to turn this into a Jeopardy game show, right? (Smile) Thank you all for taking the time to read this. It's going to be a wonderful summer so let's greet it with a joyful noise. Most Sincerely, Mark PS Just so you don't think you have either double-vision or, as the case may be, double-hearing, I am posting this to both the iPhone list and the Mac Visionaries list. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.
