Separate the names with semicolons and then you can use Word to put the list in a column and sort it alphabetically, that will help to find who is on the list. Then just advertise your list on related threads and add or remove freeper at their request.

Hello, I have the Gen-X Ping list.

Check my homepage, I have an overview of how ping list work, It's more for the pingee than the pinger but it might be helpful.

I also saved every article that I've pinged on my homepage so you can click them and see a little how it works. It's not that hard, you will get the hang of it after a Ping or two.

When I was first starting the ping list I put this in my tagline in order to get people to sign on and see if there was interest.

(Starting Generation X Ping list - See my home page for details and on how to be added)

I got some to sign up that way but it wasn't until I actually did some pings that the majority of people on my list signed up.

The names of the people on my ping list are on my homepage and when I need to do a ping I cut and paste them into the "To" field. It's probably preferable to keep everybody's name in a notepad *.txt file on your computer if you can, I can be on one of four computers at any given time when making a ping which would make it a real pain to keep all of them updated all the time so I have to have them on my homepage where I can easily grab them from any computer.

and always I put the body in the "Your Reply" section, In my case it's


Xer Ping

Ping list for the discussion of the politics and social aspects that directly effects Generation-X (Those born from 1965-1981) including all the spending previous generations (i.e. The Baby Boomers) are doing that Gen-X and Y will end up paying for.

Freep mail me to be added or dropped. See my home page for details.

Thanks to everyone for helping get my ping list off the ground. I had assumed that the lists were stored and administered somewhere on the FR server. Now I know better.

The best part about being a Freeper is the wealth of knowledge available with a simple question. Not to mention the good people providing it. Thanks again!
