As all attempts to put a link in my sig have failed (it's late, it's been a long day) I am just going to post it here.
Created a new yahoo groups, Bluejackers Anonymous - for the discussion of bluejacking and all associated stuff. I got fed up with trawling through here just looking for bluejacking threads (before I perused the rest, of course) and felt it might be nice to have a group just for that that you could get via email if you wanted.
JellyEllie and myself are already there, along with a few others. Hope to have a few files up there soon. Give it a look, if you fancy. All welcome, as afterall, a group such as this is what the people in it make it.
Bluejackers Anonymous
In case my grasp of BBcode isn't up to what it should be and the above link doesn't work (I wouldn't be at all surprised, coding has never been my forte) then here's the url in old money.
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/bluejackers_anonymous/
Hope to see you there.

Hey, you had the same problem as I did.
How on earth do you get hyperlinks in your sig?? Tried HTML and BBcode and both are stripped
Go on, someone please explain how.
Great idea re Yahoo groups - hope you get better luck than the Forum I set up - 28 people joined in 2 days and only 1 posted

@blujackers
Change the 'your website' and also the slash before the first (url) in this link and it should work. Put this in your sig
[/url=http://www.Your website] Write here if you want to conceal it and make a link [/url]

ok, let's see if that worked
Posted by masseur
no, the first "/" is incorrect so take it out.
Here is the help on this...

@ Masseur
I did mention in that post to remove the 'slash' before the first (url) along with 'Your website' . I put it there to avoid that URL being shown as a link itself.

It's working now - yipppeeee!

Right, let's see if this url siggy thing works then ....
As for the yahoo group - it's going ok so far, thanks. I've got a few files up, we got some members, - nobody but me and a couple of others are talking but I'm going to get the whip and the chair out in a bit ands force people to.
Sometimes they work and sometimes they don't, innit. Fingers crossed for this one.

No, someone providing a service for people who are interested in discussing a subject. I'm not selling anything, nor do I ask for anything - in fact, if you want to have a look, you can get files for your phone for absolutely gratis, because I've made the effort to provide a service for you that will cost you nothing but download time. It gives nothing back to me but interaction with people who are interested in the same things I am, and that's all I want. No fame or fortune or notoriety, no tv, no papers, no merchandise (I'll leave that to people better suited to the role !) just like-minded interaction. That's why I chose to set up a free *discussion group*, not a website.
I've been bluejacking as long as most on here - thanks to ajack's post (and to be sure, I give him full credit for inventing bluejacking in my welcome message to the group) - and personally I haven't seen anything in the news about it in my part of the world yet - I was doing it long before the current media craze, thankyou for presuming. Please check posting histories before you open your mouth and accuse people of bandwagon jumping.
So, let's hear your latest friendly idea for providing a free service for your fellow man, hmmmn ? - Thought not.

Don't you have to wait for a link to be approved before it appears?
Perhaps that's what's happened.
Posted by badrat_rachael
Er --- isn't that only if you submit one to the links page ? I didn't think it counted in sigs.
Posted by Bluejackers
Correct
Sigs appear immediately and they also work retrospectively so older posts get your latest sig.
However sigs > 3 lines are not user friendly

Heheheheheh, not really. I think it's safe to say the group / thread is for those of us who are lost causes.
