CNG List Serv
What is a 'list serv'?
A list serv is similar to a discussion forum except there is no need to visit a website to be updated on the latest discussion topics. Once you have joined and given your email address you will automatically receive all the messages sent back and forth via your email. You can post a message to all group members by sending an email to a single email address.
Why have a list serv?
First and foremost it is an excellent networking opportunity for sharing ideas around community nutrition and dietetic issues. There are other possibilities with a list serv too, such as file sharing, and opinion polls.
How do I join?
Simply send an email to: cnguk-subscribe@yahoogroups.com, stating your DT number, or your nut soc registration number. The list serv is open to any dietitian or public health nutritionist.
What if I don't have email?
Even if you do not have email at home or work, many offices have internet access and you can set up a private email address (check your internet use policy regarding personal use). Many sites offer free email,
eg. www.hotmail.com or www.yahoo.com
Simply visit the site and follow the instructions for setting up your own personal email address. If you have difficulty, ask your IT dept for help and advice.
