New Mexico Mycological Society - December 1999 New Home for NMMS Website Since its inception a few years ago, the NMMS Website has resided on my Webserver (Sorex) at Albuquerque TVI. However, because of increasing security concerns and network configuration changes at TVI, I will be isolating Sorex from Internet access. This means that I have had to provide a new home our Website. I am now using space provided with my account with Sprynet (a subsidiary of Mindspring). The Members-only information is still on a TVI host (Fermi) so that I can continue to provide password protection. Some of the file locations may change again, but I believe that these will be largely transparent to the user. The current URL for our Website is http://owallis.home.sprynet.com/nmms. Along with the change of location, viewers will also notice a change and standardization of appearance. I have attempted to simplify menus and page contents. I also plan to continue keeping the Newsletter as simple as possible. I have tried different combinations of Emailing copies to members, and have come to a decision on how to pursue this. I will Email a text version to all Email recipients. Contained in the Email message subject line will be the URL for the NMMS News Index. Most Web-browsing softwares will recognize this and display it as a "clickable" link. For those members whose software does not provide this capability, I suggest adding the NMMS News URL to their bookmarks or "favorites" list. I don't expect the address to change from one month to the next, so it seems unnecessary to send it as a separate message every time I send out another Newsletter. Of course, if it does change, I will pass on that information.
