Shoutbox

Well, Patchou was trying out a new type of sponsor. It's been enabled and disabled from time to time, so not everyone has seen it, but there is this thing where you are taken to the Plus! site after installation and asked to join one or more mailinglists.

Those mailinglists are not mailinglists about Plus! itself. They are indeed similar to the sponsor. If you sign up for them you will get an activation mail, after you follow the link in the activation mail you will get a mail from the advertiser you subscribed for once in a while. You can unsubscribe from those lists at any time. I've tested them, they seem very decent.

The mailinglists are a test from Patchou to see if this is a good way to make some money on a less intrusive way than the sponsor. For each person that subscribes to a mailinglist and activates it he gets a little money. He said that if it preforms well it might even replace the sponsor at some point.
