How to Share Cool Stuff

We are using two web tools that allow anyone to share cool technologies they find on the web.

How to Be Cool Just By Tagging

delicious logoIf you tag and bookmark web sites with delicious, just include the tag cooltechnmc and it will be collected (and is searchable) at http://delicious.com/tag/cooltechnmc -- you can see the lastest arrivals to cool below.

If you are new to delicious, create an account now. And we highly recommend the Common Craft video on Social Bookmarking in Plain English.

How to Be Cool Just By Sending email

posterous logoThe second way you can add to the coolness is by using plain old email which can post content to Posterous!

If you are telling someone about something you just found, if you include the address post@cooltechnmc.posterous.com as a recipient, your email is automatically made into a blog post at our site http://cooltechnmc.posterous.com/ The subject line becomes the title, and whatever you put in the message, including formating, links, attachments-- are included. Posterous is even smart enought to turn YouTube and mp3 URLs into embedded media. Scroll down to see the latest cool things shared.

You don't even need an account to do this, just your email account. To learn more about what Posterous can do, see the FAQ

Update: Due to spam activity, to email to our posterous site, we need to add your email address, so if you wish to participate, contact us to request access to send to cooltechnmc@posterous.com!
