    That was a byline in the Code Project daily email on Monday, 17 August 2009 (I read all my email - just sometimes not immediately) with a link to an article about Google Wave's launch on 30 September 2009 (http://www.codeproject.com/News.aspx?nwid=10076). Once again a witty - and ultimately accurate - analysis of a tech and more justification for me only subscribing to two email newsletters, Code Project and Read Write Web. These two give me just enough information to function and not so much that I can't make a decision! Which two email newsletters could you exist on - and I mean read them and jump to the articles therein, but not otherwise browse tech websites?

      CP only. There are only so many hours in the day when I can look at such things.

      Eight of 'em -- I do other stuff at home!

        At the moment CP is the only one I read. And even then the title has to be catchy or I won't read the article. I just don't have enough time at the moment to read everything.

          Does info world's rss feed count? CP is the only newsletter per se, but I do subscribe to several rss feeds.

            No good asking me; I've never even configured an RSS client. I work on the basis that if I want information, I'll go and get it.

            I wanna be a eunuchs developer! Pass me a bread knife!
