The Scope of the list

There are no rules about what to talk about except that I would ask that you please try and stay on topics that will be of general interest to people living in Yokohama. For example you'll probably get a better answer to computer hardware and software topics on the appropriate USENET groups but people in Yokohama will probably be able to tell you where in Yokohama to buy something.

Feel free to put some sort of tag at the start of your Subject to help people get to figure out the general topic of the mail. E.g.

[Announcement] XYZ meeting will be held...
[Wanted] A new XYZ...
[Help] Where to buy a XYZ...
[Off Topic] What does this mean.....

Subjects not suitable for this list include:

Virus Warnings: these are almost certainly hoaxes. Almost any mail which says "send this to all your friends" is a junk mail designed to to waste peoples time.
Frequent Commercial adverts. A small advert in your signature is welcomed as is the occasional (e.g. monthly) reminder about your business.
Chain Letters, Make Money or Pyramid Marketing schemes

Advertising the List

Please do advertise the existance of this list to anyone living in Yokohama. The more people that join and post messages the more useful it will become. Internet mailing lists are the prime community building medium of Cyberspace and of the 21st Century. It's your list.

If you have a homepage do make a link to this page using the banner at the top if you feel it is appropriate.
