Hello all.

I thought I'd take a few moments to update members as to teh web
features that UKplayworkers currently offers to full yahoo members.

UKplayworkers offers a free internet based mailing list for
Playworkers from the UK and abroad. Around 10% of our membership is
based in the USA. Messages are distribute to over 600 members.

In addition to this on the yahoo pages of UKplayworkers
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/UKplayworkers you can find all archived
messages going back to the date of creation 22nd March 1999. Yahoo
took the decision not to store attachments in this archive, members
may be able to get recent attachments can contacing the message poster
direct.

Other features include:

Files - please do browse this section or upload your own useful files,
a notification will be sent to the group saying you've added a file -
please keep files on topic.

Photos - A photo's section, please upload any playwork related photo's
to this section, remember to cautious about children's pictures. If
you'd like to add your own picture to the members section, please do.

Links - UKplayworkers has a long list of links, please add your own
playwork or childcre links, if you spot one that no longer workers
just let me know and I'll sort it.

Database - UKplayworkers can now make use of databases, I've started
three, these can be adapted and more items can be added, please have a
look and add any books, terminology or contact details, I will be
updating these over the Chritsmas break so that they are difinative
databases.

Polls - UKplayworkers has a few polls on the go, these mainly relate
to the profile of members but also to any play related issue, please
feel free to create or take part in a poll.

Calendar - Please feel free to add your own events to this calendar,
if anyone wants to take the time to turn this into a difinative
Calendar of playwork events across the UK please contact me.

Chat - this is a dedicated chat room for UKplayworkers, it only works
if your internet browser is enabled with Java, most Windows XP systems
are not.

If you are not a full yahoo member but would like to check out these
features, visit yahoo and sign-up. The whole world will then be at
your finger-tips.

Enjoy your UKplayworkers experience.

Michael Tombs
Owner of UKplayworkers.
