FreeLists – Free mailing lists with RSS feeds

http://www.freelists.org

(This has GOT to be my last post today! If you’ve ever wondered why my posts are so short, it isn’t because I have nothing to say 😉

Thought this would be interesting to the ‘small pieces’crowd – FreeLists.org is a free email listserving service (with no advertising and industrial strength admin controls on your lists). I’ve used it for a number of projects in the past where I didn’t have access to my own mail server and wanted to run a list. It provides users with their own web-based admin as well as web-based archives, and (what prompted this post) just announced the availability of RSS feeds for any of the list archives. They do say the lists must be ‘technology focused’ but in the past I have found them willing to accept ‘educational technology’ as easily fitting that bill. Free. Web-based. RSS. Seems like at least 3 of the magic words these days. – SWL
