For the Faithful

An e-mail I received this afternoon read as followed:

"Is there any way for others besides you to be able to see when new comments have been added to each chapter of the Bible blog? I went back today and checked all three chapters comments but that is going to get mighty cumbersome as the number of chapters gets bigger There were new comments on each of the three chapters that I had not seen so was wondering if there was a way to make that more interactive."

Because my goal is that the Bible blog be a discussion oriented and interactive site, i've sought an adequate answer to this question.

Unfortunately, blogger does not allow any provision for this kind of thing, so here is our working solution.

I can add any of you who want to a list of people who will receive the messages as I get them in my e-mail. Google mail will automatically forward them from my inbox to you. You'll just have to deal with the fact that all of the messages I type will be referred to as "me" or "you." It's a matter of pronouns, that is all.

Otherwise, the e-mail will contain a description of who left the comment (this is where the "me" means nathan.kemper) on what specific post they left it (there will then be a link to that post) and the actual text of that person's comment.

You can feel free to e-mail my gmail account (nathan.kemper@gmail.com) and ask to be added to this list. Sorry i don't have a better way, but i've tested this one, and it will work. Make sure you are clear which e-mail (any will work, even work e-mails) you would like me to have the messages sent to.
