Want to support the site? Good! I've got cool stuff to offer to make it worth your while. For only $25/YEAR (lets face it thats chump change, you can't even get a tank of gas for that!), you get all THIS:

In addition to Gotmeads 2500 pages of info and huge and active forum that you already enjoy, you will, upon subcribing, have access to the following items:

- The BrewBlog (menu item will be on the left) - here you can create an online brewing log, where you can keep track of your batches, notes and comments. No comments are allowed by others unless you say so, but all can read of your recipes, and benefit from your experience.

- The MeadCast - The GM Podcast. Starting with footage from the International Mead Festival and visits to Colorado meaderies, the MeadCast will, over time, be a monthly offering that includes pro meadery interviews, author talks, book reviews, tips, tricks and recipes for making mead, new places to purchase supplies, and anything else I can think of to help you make better mead, find better mead, and be a primo meadster.

- Mead & Honey Reviews - We've many people who have a great deal of experience with wines and meads, and will be posting reviews of commercial meads and honeys from around the world.

- Special articles and tools available only to subscribers - yet to be released. But as I devise more ways to provide mead info, and other things, they will be made available to subscribers and you will be notified as they roll out.

And, last, but not least........::drum roll::
- YOUR OWN @gotmead.com EMAIL ADDRESS!!!!!

So, so far about 15 people have signed up. I'm moving them over and setting up their email addresses as we speak. So, if you wanna get be special, and get the Good Stuff on GM, now is your chance. Pony up the measly $25.00 US per year and be Special!

Vicky - working on more new and cool toys for the site

P.S. I'm doing the switchovers manually until the next version of the subscription software I'm looking at comes out to do it automatically. So, if you subscribe, work with me, I'm creating the emails manually and moving people to the new 'patron' level manually. This will all be automates, hopefully soon, but meanwhile I'm just doing it on my own.

For all those perched on the edge of the decision, please take the leap and subscribe. I am very new to Mead making myself, but what I have learned from this site makes me feel like an old hand.

And consider, for the price of two bottles of a good Mead, you can get all of the tools to learn how to make unlimited bottles of your own excellent brew.

Angus - subscribed and happily planning the next batch.

Vicky - who just spent Sunday boxing up over 400 books (from nearly 40 years of collecting) to donate to the library, and offloading a couple 10 year old computers and *bags* of trash.. the first salvo in de-packratting my house......

Vicky,
I would like to offer my services in assisting you in de-packratting your house. Please let me know when I can come "declutter" your mead stash. I know this will be difficult for me to do, but I will do my best to support your cleaning efforts...

:tongue3: :tongue3:

HeHe....that is probably the only area in the house that *doesn't* need de-packratting.......but my basement is a perfect candidate for those guys on 'Mission Organization', worse than any show they've done so far.....
