You might have noticed that I haven't sent any Lancaster Farming
"Mailbox Markets" ads for the last couple of weeks. It isn't because I
am lazy or sick; the newspaper "updated" their website and somehow lost
my login and password. I finally got that straightened out and got in,
only to discover that the "new" format is very readable but has only 5
ads per page. So for 500 listings (which is average) I would have to go
through 100 pages, cutting and pasting the ads one by one. Well folks,
that ain't gonna happen.
I sent them a friendly note suggesting that maybe they could offer
people the choice of 5 ads per page or the old listing (which was about
25 ads/page in a linear format.
So, unless they change things, there won't be any more of my weekly
listings. (I guess there will be some people will be happy to hear that
news. :-) )
