Join thetelegraph.com's new Web community

Hey everyone,
I'm writing to let you know about The Telegraph's new online community, Pluck Site Life, set to launch Wednesday, April 23.

Do me and yourself a favor by visiting www.thetelegraph.com and registering for a free and easy account! Just navigate to our site and look to the top right hand corner of the page for a gray box that says "become a member." The prompt will ask you to enter a username and a verifiable e-mail address. Once you've registered, go to your inbox and click the link to verify your account. (If you go to the site and try to register and there is no option to "become a member," check back later. It may take awhile before it launches but it should be up for sure by tomorrow evening.)

Once you've become a member, you can click "my profile" in the same gray box on www.thetelegraph.com to navigate to all our new web community outlets. You will be able to post your own blogs, share photos and other web content, connect with other users and participate in forum discussions pertaining to area communities, news, sports and just life in general, plus much more. (And The Telegraph won't edit your content! Be advised though, The Telegraph retains the right to remove what is inappropriate.)

The new site features will also change the way you recommend and comment on The Telegraph's stories online, so you should register now! (Don't worry, you can still report inappropriate and offensive comments.)

We're excited about this new aspect of our site and we want to get as many people involved as possible. Please forward this message to everyone you know in the Edwardsville/River Bend areas as well as Jersey, Calhoun, Greene and Macoupin Counties (as well as anyone else who might have an interest in our site) so everyone has a chance to get started. Thanks and have a great day!!
