Guest guest Posted October 27, 2003 Report Share Posted October 27, 2003 i know there's been some posts on this recently (thanks !), but i don't think this point can be made too many times! would more people consider possibly chaning subject lines to be more specific? i just noticed a bunch of posts from the past few days with no connection to the subject line at all.... i usually only read about half the posts on the list because i skip entire threads that don't interest me (especially political/ideological stuff), but there's probably interesting stuff in there i'm missing, given the lack of subject-line updating... really specific keywords are GREAT!!! multiple keywords are GREAT!!! also, think of people who will join the list and want to study the archives. just reading every single post is not feasible, and the archive search is pretty limited. scanning through subject lines is potentially an incredibly valuable way of studying archives, contingent upon their accuracy! mike parker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
