The ZIP search feature helps supportive people find each other discretely -

That was unkind. The site doesn't make any money from this service, but I
believe in the online community and convinced the powers that be to open the
site to everyone - no charge. People are finding real life buddies in their
neighborhoods - and lots more are supporting each other in the message
board.

In the meantime, I'm working on the tools that will one day pay the bills -
and others that subscribers to these newsgroups would find useful.

It was easy to type those 15 characters - it's a lot harder to do something
that really helps people.

I'm not going to question your motivation, but the fact is that your post
does constitute spam in so much as you cross posted it to multiple groups,
whic is a really rude and annoying habit no matter how on topic you feel the
subject to be.

She also posted it to the Austin.General newsgroup where it is not at all
"on topic". I don't know about everybody else but I'd rather chew broken
glass than ever visit her site.

There are just a few groups that, by their charter, would be read by people
interested in local weight loss/activity partners. I can't imagine why
anyone would be annoyed - the participants in WLB's message board are happy
to be finding each other.

Our hosting company has strict rules about spam, but my periodic notices
don't violate 'em. Heck, I'm attaching my real name and email address - I'm
proud to have expanded WLB's original purpose, but what would be the point
if nobody knew the service was there? It's not like we're charging fees for
advertising - the 'real' part of the business hasn't even opened yet.

And thank you for noticing the local announcements. Since the purpose is to
help people find each other, I added local announcement groups to increase
the probability that people who respond will succeed.

That said, I personally apologize to anyone who finds my activities
distateful, but I ask you to please recognize that there's a legitimate need
WLB's search feature can fill, so I will continue.
