Well, the emails come once a week, I think? I don't pay that much attention, honestly.

What is even happening?
Sorry, I edited when I should have posted a new message, I think. One post a week certainly doesn't pose a burden for me personally. In truth, most Press posts aren't newsworthy to me personally. At least these are something I might use, and that use would benefit the board.

I have no problem with one post a week in press -- it doesn't seem like a burden to me to scroll past.

Any way to post a deals page under one link?

jesse, skipping it might be fine because it shouldn't become a giant burden for you and if most people aren't doing anything about it, then does it serve a purpose?

We have been making ~$30-$40 bucks a quarter off the affiliate links, so that's not nothing.

But, Jesse, is that for the deals?
My mistake, I should have clarified.
If posting the special offers means having to have multiple posts or having to create a single external link or whatever, are the posting of the deals themselves worth the effort? Not the general affiliate links.

Oh, right, I know. I'm just saying, somebody's shopping Amazon, so why not let them know what's on sale. I don't know if it's worth the effort, but it's not all that much effort.

If it's not too much effort, I'd like to keep seeing the sale thingies. I tend to forget that there are affiliate links. so it's nice to have the gentle poking periodically. And I like deals.

-t is me in this case. I keep forgetting we have affiliates (although I don't use Amazon much anymore since finding DDDVD).
