University Web Developers <uwebd />

uwebd is a world-wide email mailing list for anyone involved with implementing and maintaining web sites in a University environment. The University of Akron Web Team is pleased to host and maintain this list. The list provides a platform for higher education web professionals to connect, collaborate and strengthen relationships with peers across the globe.

The list is moderated and subscription to the list is at the sole discretion of the list owners.

Subscribe to the list: send email to: listserv@lists.uakron.edu from the email address that you wish to receive messages from the list. In the body of the message send the command SUBSCRIBE UWEBD. All requests for subscription are reviewed by the moderator and you will recieve a message confirming your subscription, usually within 24 hours.

Once you create a password, from the create password screen, you will see lists you are subscribed to listed on the left of the screen. Clicking on the uwebd name will take you to the list and Archive is a selection in the left-hand menu. From there you are good to go. There is a decent search function included on the Archive page.
