Midway Shelter Have a Heart Gala

Alameda Midway Shelter Have a Heart Gala

Hello.

I hope you had a wonderful weekend. I enjoyed the weekend by getting back on my mountain bike.

Next weekend ought to be just as exciting…

The 17th Annual Have a Heart Gala

On Saturday, March 29, 2008 The Alameda Mayor’s Fundraiser Committee is hosting the 17th Annual Have a Heart Gala at the Albert DeWitt “O” Club benefiting the Alameda Midway Shelter for abused & homeless women and children.

There will be dinner and dancing, an open and silent auction and a performance by The Sun Kings, Bringing the Sounds of The Beatles to Alameda.

I am promoting the event, (1) MJS Web Solutions is designing the new website and (2) it is a wonderful and worthwhile cause that needs your support.

For more information or to reserve your seat, please contact (510) 748-8410 or (510) 523-2377.

Constant Contact Doesn’t Know What RSS Feed Means

Constant Contact Logo - Didn't Know RSS FeedConstant Contact support didn’t know what an RSS feed was.

‘O boy.

I called Constant Contact support to find out if they archived the email newsletters in an RSS/XML feed. The support guy didn’t know what I was talking about. He didn’t know what an RSS feed was. Holy Mackerel! I figure anyone who has a web business these days would know about RSS technology. If you don’t, shame on you.

What Does RSS Feed Mean?

With an RSS feed you can ‘feed’ data into any source. A pda, smartphone, mp3 player, and in my case a website.

I wanted to ‘feed’ my client’s archived newsletters from Constant Contact into my client’s website.

So, I put a request into Constant Contact to have them provide a way to archive email newsletters via an RSS feed. The competition is doing it.

I hope he passes along my suggestion.
