New Services: Twitter, E-Mail Updates from TW

We're trying out some new technology here at Thrasher's Wheat as we try and keep up with the Web 2.0 revolution.

You can now subscribe to TW updates via Twitter. When new posts are uploaded, the RSS feed updates and sends a tweet (or twit, ping or whatever) over to Twitter subscribers.

Also, by request, we've added an e-mail notification for new posts. Enter your e-mail address in upper right submission field and you'll receive a notice in your inbox. This service is via a 3rd party so Thrasher's Wheat will not retain your e-mail address. The service will not sell your e-mail address either.

The new commenting feature introduced recently ran into some bugs during a crucial time period over the election and we lost lots of comments. So that was a bummer. We really missed all those folks bashing us for taking a position on the U.S. election. So we've reverted back to the previous commenting format and will hopefully restore once things stabilize.

So hopefully these new services will be helpful.
