Good Morning, I hope you are looking forward this week's CIG e-forum on social media. Below is some general information on how the CIG e-forum will work: 1. The CIG e-forum discussion takes place using email. When the moderators kick off discussion, you will receive an email message. To participate, you simply send messages to [log in to unmask] or respond to an email sent to you. The settings are designed so that responses go to the entire list. There is no special software or interface that you have to use. 2. If you're busy and you would like to receive fewer emails, you can change your the settings to digest format. Go to: http://jiscmail.ac.uk/CIG-E-FORUM, log in using the email and password that you received when you signed up for the list. Choose "Subscriber's Corner" (top left) and go into the settings. Choose the CIG-E-FORUM settings and change "subscription type" to "digest MIME format". The digest is set to provide one message per 25 messages sent to the list. 3. If you want to participate fully in the CIG e-forum, but want to keep the email messages separate from other email, you can probably set up a filter in your mail client, which will have CIG e-forum messages directly delivered to a folder of your choice, as opposed to your in-box (just don't forget to check the folder!), or flag the messages to alert you that they are e-forum messages. To help with setting up filters, all messages have the phrase "[CIG-E-FORUM]" in the subject line. 4. Finally, If you wish to unsubscribe completely, go to http://jiscmail.ac.uk/CIG-E-FORUM and you should see the option "unsubscribe" under Options across the top. The entire discussion today will be available at the above url as well, if you'd prefer to read it later. You can always re-subscribe to the list at a later date if a future topic is of interest to you.
