What’s wrong with this announcement?

Do you see anything wrong with this announcement, which I received as an email attachment, of what looks to be a very interesting discussion of hunger, food and faith?

There is no URL.

There is no URL!

Folks, if you are having any kind of gathering or event that you’d like to be shared online, please please provide a URL.

Benefits of a URL:

  • Easy to share
  • Can be updated if details change
  • Lives forever, so can be referenced in the future
  • Can hold vastly more information than a flyer

There are many easy ways to create a URL for your event.

  • Facebook
  • EventBrite
  • Google Sites
  • Weebly
  • wordpress.com
  • Google Forms

And I’m sure I’m missing dozens of other options.

Repeat after me: I am having an event, and my event deserves a URL.

    The comma before the ampersand strikes me as a more grave error to be honest!

    Ah, that too, that too!
