A sample from a recent digest (click to enlarge).

There are a few different ways you can follow the stories on Bay Ridge Odyssey. My favorite is relentlessly clicking “refresh” on my web browser, which I highly recommend. But there’s more than one way to skin a cat (which I do NOT recommend). I have two other ways I like to keep up here – one of them is my subscription to the Odyssey’s daily digest – the e-mail that excerpts of all of our stories for the day.

Since I hate spam, I’ve crafted the daily digest in a way that I find interesting and helpful, instead of repetitive and spammy, in the hopes that you would derive the same value from it. It goes out at 3pm. In my office environment, that’s the time for a short break, coffee, or whatever. The perfect time to catch up on some local news.

It works perfectly for me, because I get to find out what’s going on before I leave for the day and without interfering with my normal work routine.

Sometimes I use that digest e-mail to drop little hints of projects that are coming down the pike, and give readers the opportunity to participate. That’s pretty cool, yeah?

So people – if this sounds interesting, please sign up. All we need is your e-mail address, which we never share or sell to anybody, for any reason.
