Subscribing to CSS in Rome

We heard from some soon-to-be loyal readers that they were not receiving any e-mail. The subscription process takes two steps:
* one to subscribe (typing in your e-mail address at right)
* one to verify that you intended to subscribe, by clicking on a link in a message sent after you typed your e-mail.

If you have not done the second step, you won't receive e-mail notices about new postings. (Several folks are listed in that pending status right now.)

CSS Subscribers: The Barracuda spam firewall will snap up the confirmation message. Look in your spam box (online) for a message sent by Feedblitz. You will want to whitelist Feedblitz because that is the source of the daily e-mails.

This seems complex - but it prevents pranksters from signing you up to receive blogs you would not want, and spam merchants from flooding you with commercial blogs.
