New Internet Apps Poderator Bids You Greetings!
---------------------------------------------------------
I know you're expecting yet another "Hello, it's me" introductory Poderator letter TELLING you what I think you want to hear. Sorry. But I'm not going to do that. Instead, I'm going to let YOU run the show. The way I see it, I'm here to help you. ...and the only way to do that is to listen to you.

What?! Let ME run the show?!? You mean I have to do all the pod work?! Nope. It simply means that your participation, suggestions, and opinions will drive the vision of this pod. You'll see the kinds of info you want to see, be able to share the kinds of things you want to share. And, most of all, be able to commune with those you share a kin to.

Absolutely. You'll run the show.

But if you want to, you can visit my website and "give me a piece of your mind" at: http://www.praetora.com>/A> and get your fill of personal garble, programming info, custom graphics, online greeting cards, movie reviews, freebies, and all the other thingys that can't spit out in one breath. I figure that I have a job to do here and its to keep the Pod rolling instead of showcasing my ego (which in fact is large, but I am on my best behaviour today).

In addition, I'll be putting up a Community Webstop (at: http://chat.tripod.com/pods/ and I'll be there to listen to your suggestions, comments, and thoughts! Or, if you can't make it, you can email me at: [email protected], let me know what it is about, and I'll be happy to work with you. Just be specific, clear, and realistic. For you code fiends out there, compile this using a binary method and it'l be easy to understand. (kidding!)
