As the list seems to be quiet, my last digest was #68 on July 1, and I know I sent a lengthy email about convention hoping it might kick out a new digest, I decided to write about the IOLI increasing the dues to cover mailing and printing costs of the magazine and the new digital version at lower cost.
I, and all IOLI members with an email address, should have received an email from Prabha Ramakrishnan, the editor recently. Apart from increasing dues, they are making an online version of the Bulletin available at a lower cost or, if paying the full membership dues, you can get both versions. I was able to access the online one in the link from Prabha, but if I decided to go the digital route, I would need to have access through a Google account. I don't have a gmail email, so I am not sure how I would do that. What is a Google Account? I don't want a new email address and the FAQ's say I don't need to do that, but how would I access it? Checking out the magazine online, I think I have decided to pay the full amount when I renew in September as I prefer to have the paper version that I can flip through, leave at the side of my chair so I can pick it up whenever I want to check something. I don't like the fact that I can't read the screen if I am looking at the full pag! e of the magazine, and on my laptop I need to zoom in to read the details, and then I have to move the screen up and down. Not for me, too lazy. Can anyone answer my question on a Google Account, and what do others think of this new version?
