Volume II Issue II - 16 August 2005 A.D

We have created a mailing list called Alumnus. An email with joining request/invitation will be sent to you within next 24 hours. You need to confirm the subscription to the list by following the method most suitable to you. This list will be a new medium of communication not only between you and the association but between the various members. When you will email the mailing list email id the same email will be sent to everyone who is in the mailing list. This avoids mailing everyone separately. Its a great time saver and effective/shared communication medium.

Once you confirm your subscription by following the method described in email and then follow the onscreen instructions you will get another welcome email which will have email id on which you need to mail your messages so that everyone receives your mail.

I strongly recommend you to confirm the subscription request/invitation email sent to you at the earliest and subscribe to the list. Please note that all future issues of newsletters, announcements and the student meets etc will henceforth be only served through the mailing list. So if you don't subscribe you will miss a lot.

If you have some issue which you wish to email us independently then use the email id's from the contacts page.

Hi!

Its been ages we have been in touch. Hope all is fine with you. Things have been very much different here during these days. Hectic schedules and meetings that finally led to some agreements for revenue generation and sponsorship of the site.

DNS Buddy an internet domain Registration and related services company will now sponsor and run our website. DNS Buddy will  host thenobleshool.com on their servers and incur all the maintenance and related charges of the website. They will have liberty to place their ads, marketing materials and tools anywhere on the site and the forums. We are also in talks with DNS Buddy to sponsor our association on the whole.


Moreover I am happy to announce that we have entered into agreement with world's leading IT giant Google, this will enable Google to place their ads on our webpages. In turn we will earn money when someone clicks these ads. Also an agreement has been reached with Team Ti! The Indians - A leading gaming clan of India whose ads will now appear on our website.


I had tried my best to run the association website independently during these years but now due to various factors including shortage of time it has become virtually impossible for me to do all the work independently.


Now with this sponsorship deal in place I will have more time for the association. Moreover registering new members will be  my main objective. I will try to do whatever best possible further.


Dear friends please be informed that DNS Buddy has sponsored the site and nothing more which means the website wont be  updated with new sections regularly as I wont be around. Their work is just to maintain and sponsor it and not to develop it. But let me clarify that new submissions to the Alumnus and faculty database will be done and updated regularly with any problem. By the way new ideas are always welcome I will try to incorporate it in the site if its helpful to other members. So don't stop sending us your valuable suggestions.


Let me also tell you that the much awaited WAP Site update has been scrapped as newer mobile phones now have XHTML support and WAP may be soon a thing of the past. Therefore now I am working on a XHTML version of the mobile site and will host it in some months time.

Before I conclude I once again request you to please! please!

1. Visit the site regularly
2. Ask your non-members friends to join it.
3. Be an active member of Alumnus Forums (http://www.forum.thenobleschool.com)

Last but not the least - The faculty database has been finally updated. Mrs. Shanta Subramanyam and Mrs. Pushpa Natarajan have kindly given their contact address and the same has been incorporated in  the faculty database, you can now contact them using this information. Our beloved Mr. Watchorn has registered as a member of the forum and he will soon post his comments there. More teachers are being contacted and as soon as we get a word from them along with their contact details we will update the faculty database.
