Re subject, who or what is ANN?


[ANN] normally stands for ANNouncement, so you can filter it out
from other postings ...


Thanks. It doesn't seem to be a widely documented convention, nor one
that is used often, hence my puzzlement.


I've never heard of it either and I've been mooching around Usenet for
years.

I guess geeky people (i.e. myself) live in a world of their own and
after a while they think it is the norm with the outside world :-)

To prove that this convention actually exists, you can look at, for
example, comp.lang.java.announce, or any other newsgroups with
"announce" in it, to see what I mean.

Dear fellow London commuters

I am a London commuter, and also know a bit about web design, so have
decided to put the two together and come up with an area on my website
where I record events, stories, and images from my daily journey into
Docklands. I have made it possible for everyone to post their own
stories too, so everyone is welcome to just drop a message or a photo
here. There are a few tube related blogs around, but most of them do not
allow visitors to post new articles.

I have also include a Tube route finder with integrated Google maps,
which some people might find useful. You can also use the route finder
to subscribe to the communities for the stations along your daily journey.

The URL is http://www.ok2life.com/. I have only just started so will
take a bit of time to build up articles and images, so look forward to
seeing new visitors. Do send me suggestions on anything else you think I
can do to improve the site's usefullness, like live chat, perhaps.

Regards
David
