Orthodox Observer - July 1997

Observer Most-Visited Archdiocese Web Page

Since the development of the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese's World Wide Web site, the most visited section of the site continues to be the Orthodox Observer home page. The Web site (www.goarch.org) has received more than 2 million visits since Sept. 15. It currently receives more than 100,000 visits each week from Internet users in over 40 countries around the world.

Selected articles from the Orthodox Observer in both English and Greek have been available on the web site each month. And, since April, the Archdiocesan Department of Internet Ministries, together with the Orthodox Observer, began producing the entire Observer in full color on the Internet.

The new Internet edition of the Observer (available in Adobe Acrobat format) now includes all the photographs as well as the look and layout of the original printed edition in Greek and English.

As a result of this new format, any parish or individual in the world now can read select pages of the Observer from the Archdiocese web site and reprint them in newsletter format for dissemination in the parish and inclusion in weekly or monthly newsletters.

The online edition of the Orthodox Observer is available on the Internet at: www.goarch.org/goa/observer.

Expanding its comprehensive presence on the Internet, the Archdiocese has also established an Internet e-mail listserver to assist in the instant dissemination of Archdiocese-related news and press releases.

All official documents, encyclicals and press releases of the Archdiocese cant be disseminated via Internet e-mail to subscribers of this listserver.

In addition, all official information and updates concerning the upcoming U.S. visit of His All Holiness Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew will also be disseminated via this e-mail listserver.

| Archbishop Spyridon encourages all parishes, priests, parish council members, Philoptochos, YAL and youth of the Archdiocese to subscribe to this service. There is no fee.

To subscribe to the Archdiocesan listserver, send an e-mail to: majordomo@list.goarch.org. In the body of the e-mail message, type: subscribe archdiocese.
