Oh, the irony. We are so busy organizing and coordinating events, that we're too busy to stop for a minute, invite the larger community to upcoming events or draft summaries and press releases about what just happened. by and large our online communication falls into 4 categories:
- Events sponsored by the CIE (handled using constant contact & our email lists)
- News of CIE related initiatives (handled using this blog)
- Events by associated organizations (handled using google calendar)
- News from associated organizations (handled by twitter)
Each of these channels produces it's own RSS feed, each of which can by 'burned' to daily email digests using Google's feedburner too.
For the last couple months, we have been providing the links to these tools separately (i.e. follow us on twitter, but not google calendar or constant contact; or follow the blog, but not the other channels).
This is just plain confusing. As a result, we aggregated the four RSS feeds into one (using google reader), and burned it to a daily email digest (using feedburner).

individual RSS update of everything that we (re-)broadcast, please use this link:

constant contact email list you will continue to receive personal invitations for events sponsored by the CIE)
