The Electronic Newsletter George Brett

East Carolfna University

Newsletters traditionally have been a channel for exchange of information among professionals in a particular field of interest. Newsletters come in most every format from simple broadsheets to glossy magazines. All have a few common traits such as space limitations, time dealines, and postal fees.

Imagine if you will being able to make a phone call to read a newsletter. But also with this one call being able to send your article to the edi tor, a 1 etter to a colleague in another state, or a want-ad for the teaching position that just opened in your department. Perhaps you would check on the latest in a series of ongoing debates in the Public Forum section. While you are browsing through the information, you are interrupted by a flashing message that someone is tryi ng to contact you. The message is from the recipient of your letter. She happened to be "online" at the same time as you are, has read your letter, and has responded to it. All this with one phone call. You have read your newsletter, sent an article, sent a letter to another subscriber, posted a want-ad, taken part in an o~going debate, and have received a message from a colleague in another state.

28

This kind of imagination can lead to large phone bills. In fact it does. This is not fiction but

fact for many professionals right now. These people own or have access to mitrocomputers and terminals. They are subscribers to one of the large Data Bases such as the "Source" or "Compuserve." These

people also use another form of Data Base known as the Electronic Bulletin Board, such as the North Carolina Educational Computing Service's Message and Mail service.

The large Data Base provides service on a subscription basis. The fee is based on the length of time that the subscriber is in contact, "on 1 ine", with the Data Base. While "on line" the subscriber can browse through information from a number of national newspapers including the "New York Times" and the "Washington Post." Other services include the

stock market r.eports; reviews of movies, theater, and recordings; tutorials for computer programming; financial Management; word processing; and public bulletin boa rd s.

Similar to the bulletin board in an office or at a local laundromat, the Electronic Bulletin Board would be visualized as a large

expanse where messages are posted. Public messages are pinned open­faced to the board. Private messages are folded with only the recipient's name visible. The Electronic Bulletin Board is usually a sequential list of articles and messages on the computer system on which the bulletin board is run. Anyone who has access to the bulletin board can read the open messages. Sometimes passwords are given to limit the people who can write articles or messages. Most times however, bulletin boards are open.

Public messages are posted on the Electronic Bulletin Board as "news items" or "articles." Private messages are· thought of as "mail" that is sent to each user's mail box. The computer hardware and software programs for the bulletin board are known as the "system." The person in charge of the "system" is the "system operator." The subscriber who accesses the bulletin board is the "user."

Until recently bulletin boards have been used primarily for and by computer buffs. Using secret passwords and codes for entry to a private club, computer hackers, buffs, sit at their terminals an go "on line." This is beginning to change. Now some larger corporations, especially in financial fields, have been using Electronic Bulletin Boards as a method for keeping in touch with employees out in the field. Now a sal e sma n can calli nat any tim e during the day or night to update his, her, or company files on a certain client or job. Memos can be sent to the bulletin board to be r ead by people in the same building and across the nation.

The key to accessing a bulletin board is to have a little system th at can tie into the big system . Cu rrently, a personal system can cost from four hundred to four th ousand dollars. And this cost is com ing down slowly.

o. Brett 28

But what does all this have to do with newsletters you ask. Some bulletin board systems now have a "system operator," usually a person who owns the computer or works for the owner. Thi s "sysop" is responsible for making sure all the hardware and software of the system is operati ng, and, in effect he or she is the editor of the bulleting board. When messages and articles are out of date, become too inflammatory, or are incomprehensible, this personed1ts them from the system. One system thinks of the sysop as a gardener who "prunes" the bad branche i from the bulletin board. In fac~this system is known {is the "Comm~niTree Conferencing System."

Electronic Bulletin Boards have editors. But, are they newsletters? In many respects, yes, they are.

The negative response is that for the moment Electronic Bulletin Boards are the playthings of the growing minority of microc6mputer users. Even though it will take time for the masses in academia to realize the certain potential of Electronic Bulletin Board as professional newsletters, is bound replace newsletters for professionals for at least two good reasons: money and time.

Money. Everyone pays for a printed newsletter. Subscribers pay a fee imbedded in their professional dues; contributors pay for duplication and postage of manuscripts to and from the editor. The newsletter itself pays an ever­increasing amount for printing. Then the circulation staff pays to have mailing labels printed or typed and, finally, pays for mail ing the nevsletters to the subscriber~.

Time. Considering the time for collecting information, editing, typesetting, printing, and posting, the time lag for an article from submission to the time it is read is

often six months or more. such a lag almo~t insures that information presented in the newsletter will be

30 The Electronic Newsletter

dated and does insure that the contributor will have a substantial wait to receive any response or feedback to his or her concepts. In some fields of research this could prove to be deadly.

Electronic Bulletin Boards can help to alleviate some of these problems. As an electronic newsletter, the Electronic Bulletin Board would be available to subscribers twenty-four hours a day: That means that professionals who have the means to access the newsletter would be able to do more than just read text when they go "online". With each phone call they could read the newsletter, submit an article, and exchange data or other information with other subscribers. Passwords would prevent unauthorised tampering ~ith information in the newsletter. The system operator/editor could delegate authority to other persons so that they would be responsible for editing and maintaining particualr areas of interest. The editor would make periodic checks of the system to insure proper maintenance of equipment and sufficient file space for news articles and mail.

Imagine submitting an article on Monday and receiving critical comments on Tuesday. Imagine having an entire year of selected articles stored on a single five and one quarter inch square piece of magnetic media. Imagine sending notes of a meeti ng to fi ve indivduals in separate locations with one phone call. You have imagined the electronic newsletter.
