VOLUME 1, ISSUE 3
In This Issue: What's in a
Scoop? | Odyssey News | Podcast-ization
Hello AIO Fan,
We're glad you were
excited about signing up for the AIO Scoopian
Newsletter.
The Odyssey Scoop exists to give listeners the
"Scoop" on Adventures in Odyssey, one cone
at a time.
It's been several
months since the last newsletter was sent out, and
it's a big year for Adventures in Odyssey
as well. 2007 issues in AIO's 20th anniversary. That
means a lot of exciting things are happening this
year! What are these exciting things? Well, you may
want to keep listening to Odyssey to find out later
this year.
What's in a
Scoop?
A Scoop of Odyssey,
that is. While there haven't been major updates to
The Odyssey Scoop this summer, several items of
interest have popped up. You'll notice that the main
page of the site has taken on a slightly newer and
fresher design. It's not too much of a step, but
certainly an improvement. Whether you're an older
visitor or a newbie, you've probably noticed that we
like to keep things both exciting and professional
over at the site. The AIO F.A.Q. section was
recently updated with tons of fans' questions, so
check them out.
Some things have been
going on behind-the-scenes as well. Small updates
have appeared throughout the Scoop, though you may
have not noticed them. For example, a "Testimonials"
page is now accessible from
https://odysseyscoop.com, where fans just
like you have commented on the site. Little tweaks
have also been made to improve page loads and more.
Not ony that, a
tentative future update promises a batch of fan
interviews that have been hiding in the vault for
months. So if you were interviewed within the past
year or so, don't worry. It's still safe with us,
and we're hoping to release it by the end of the
summer. We may not be able to post every single one
at the same time, but all interviews will be made
available eventually. Keep checking the Odyssey
Scoop for this big update!

Podcast-ization
Although it seems that
there are quite a few dormant Odyssey sites sitting
around lately, a new "Unofficial Adventures in
Odyssey Podcast" has hit the internet airwaves. Yes,
it was started several months ago by Odyssey fans
just like you. To listen to the podcast, point your
browser to The Town of Odyssey message boards (http://www.thetoo.com).
It won't take long to find the link to the site.
It's interesting to point out that a very lengthy
interview has been conducted with Nathan Hoobler and
Marshal Younger. It's certainly worth a listen.
Thank you for reading
this newsletter. As a side note, we recently added a
site survey which can be accessed by clicking a link
at the top of the site's homepage. Your feedback is
important to us. After all, if it wasn't for the
visitors, there wouldn't be a "Scoop" on
Adventures in Odyssey.
As always, if you're
interested in learning more about the webmaster,
point your browser to jacobisom.org.
The site contains a collection of audio recordings,
videos, poetry, short stories, wallpaper,
photos, and more.
Again, thanks for
reading. And thank you for making the Odyssey Scoop
a fun place to be!
Sincerely,
Jacob Isom
The Odyssey Scoop "Top
Cone"
