It might not be obvious at first glance, but a lot of improvements have been made to The Dream Lounge recently. One of these changes is how posts are delivered by e-mail. Previously Feedburner handled this for me, but I’ve since switched to MailChimp, because it’s way cooler, and it opens the door to building an actual e-mail list of TDLers, instead of just blog posts being sent by e-mail.
While I still don’t have much interest in directly e-mailing people who read this blog, I do recognize that I might someday, and having the ability to do so would be important, if and when I decide I want to for a specific reason.
Traveling to a new city, a private project, volunteers needed, etc.
Anyway, now you can subscribe to a real e-mail list.
For the foreseeable future, you will only be notified of new blog posts when they release, at a maximum of one e-mail daily. You can sign up by clicking here, entering your e-mail at the bottom of any post next to where it says “submit”, or you can click the orange “subscribe by e-mail” at the top right hand corner on every page of the blog.
And still functional, you can subscribe to the traditional RSS feed here.
Of course, be sure to follow me on Twitter as well, where I relentlessly spam Ron Paul videos and 21 Convention videos.
Good stuff! Just subscribed.
You might want to take a look at AWeber instead. It does cost a little bit more money, but it is the industry standard of actually delievering your mails to the readers inbox.

Thanks, but I’m not concerned about it. MailChimp does exactly what I need for this blog and its free.
I do use Aweber for The 21 Convention though, which has a significantly larger subscriber base.
