It looks like there should be an easy way for visitors to spread the word on TeaParty07.com and others to their friends. There are several ways to do this, my favorite is with the HREF mailto html code- below is some sample code that can be used to start:


<a HREF="mailto:?subject=Join%20the%20Ron%20Paul%20Tea%20Pa rty%20December%2016!&body=Sign%20up%20at%20http://www.TeaParty07.com">E-mail your friends!</a>

You can cut and paste it here to try it out:

Great job everyone, keep it up! :)

Oo! good idea.

Thanks- giving this a bump- it should be real easy to add and it's effective. Just hyperlink the text "Please spread the word. Thank you." or something. :)

Great idea.

Actually, he is using FeedBurner already.

FeedBurner allows a Flare add-on that accomplishes this with amazing ease and simplicity.

It would take about 5 minutes to implement.

Looks like he implemented your idea already. Excellent suggestion.

I was reluctant to do this with a "refer to a friend" script for fear of spam. This is a great way to suggest the same thing but put the delivery method back onto the visitor. Nice!
