AOL Address
Last weeks QUESTION OF THE WEEK: Should I move my email address form AOL? brought thses responses:
Where you have your e-mail is a personal choice. I do not feel it “devalues” the work that you do. Would a “hotmail” or a “yahoo” e-mail address increase the value of your commentary?
If one makes a “decision” as to the value of information provided solely based upon their e-mail address, perhaps that individual needs to reassess their own set of values.
Keep doing what you do. - J. Samuel
If you were I.B.M. or Walmart, yes: use a @walmart.com … but the AOL address is more personal — it gives your readers the feeling of more intimate access, as if you are “just one of us.” Not to mention AIM (instant message) with which I first made contact. Continued success, B. Reid
Any further thoughts?
