Power Reporting: Alerts for journalists: Fun

Daily Chuckle
A free joke, every week, by E-mail. But it's still called the "daily" chuckle. You figure it out.

The Straight Dope
Home of Cecil Adams, legendary answer man, whose column appears in many alternative weeklies. From The Chicago Reader. Also by e-mail alert.

The Word
A journalism quotation of the day, sent by E-mail by Ted Pease of Utah State University. To subscribe, send an E-mail with the text "SUBSCRIBE WORD" to tpease@cc.usu.edu. To stop the torment, send "UNSUBSCRIBE WORD."

Yahoo Calendar
Yahoo! Calendar lets you set up alerts for recurring events, with the advantage of having a calendar of events that several people can edit, and many can see, on the Web. Free registration with Yahoo is required.
