We have looked into a simpler way to help people subscribe to blogs rather than only using RSS feeds to something like iGoogle.
We experimented on UnderTheCuckooClock.org, so take a look there. Try it out - all you do is put your e-mail address in the "E-Mail Subscription" box there at the top of the right column. Each time a new blog entry is posted, you will get an e-mail alerting you.
First I subscribed, got an e-mail telling me I had to activate the subscription by clicking on the live link. Then I posted a blog entry "This is a test of our new e-mail subscription service" and now I will see if I get my daily update yet today or tomorrow! I will update this post to let†you know!
For some, this will be easier than using the RSS feed to something like iGoogle. Everything is a learning process!
