Online
Here are some ways you can get active online for the Dream Act!
GET ACTIVE WITH YOUR EMAIL!
1.Copy + Paste! : Most email, facebook, myspace and other online communication lies in the power of copy & paste, make your life easier and learn these shortcuts, if you don't already use them! Ctrl + C (Copy) Ctrl + V (Paste)
2. Spice it up with a catchy subject line! Make me curious, interested! Personalize it if possible!
3. Remove FWD in subject line! No one likes to be seconds, and chances are less people will read your message. BCC to keep others happy! Not only are 4 million emails before the actual message annoying but may also violate others' privacy.
4. Stick to the following 'Sender Guidelines':
- To: Primary recipients
- Cc: Carbon copy to secondary recipients—other interested parties
- Bcc: Blind carbon copy to recipients who receive the message without others seeing who else received it!
5. Let others know about the DREAM Act: Direct them to a site or inform them on an action they can take with your email signature.
- Log onto your e-mail domain and go to the Settings/Preferences section and add your message.
6. Insert images! Upload your image(s) in Photobucket, Imageshack or any other image hosting site and then just copy them into the body of your e-mail!
- Make a free account at: photobucket.com or imageshack.com
