What does "Ping" mean?

Posted on 07/02/2006 7:57:20 AM PDT by maineman

I see so many people asking to be put on the 'ping list', what does that mean?

I also see that you can be 'pinged' if something you are interested in is posted. Are you notified someway?

Thanks

Guess your definition is completely different than mine.
Being "Civil" is not being sarcastic, denigrating, putting down others because they aren't as sophisticate as you (seem to) think you are.

Here is a more adept response in your definition of civility. "........ and the horse you rode in on...."
