INFO: How do the Weekly Summary KbAlertz messages get sent out?

As of Feb 2004, there is a Weekly Summary available for your account. The weekly summary is separate from your daily Alertz, and you can subscribe to one, or the other, or both. The way the weekly Alertz works is simple. We keep track of the last time we sent you a weekly e-mail. Our engine will only send weekly emails to accounts that have not received an e-mail in the last 7 days. So if the technology you're subscribed to isn't updated for 9 days, you'll receive an Alertz message on the 9th day, and then it will be at least 7 more days from that point, that you'll get another weekly Alertz message.

This explains why you may not get an Alertz message on the same day every week. Chances are, if you're subscribed to a number of popular technologies, then your Alertz will arrive on the same day each week. If your only subscribed to one or two less popular technologies, then your email may not be on the same day each week.


We would like to thank the fine folks with the following organizations for helping us deliver the kbAlertz.com service. This service is very expensive to run, and has an extremely high traffic volume. This creates technical support issues, bandwidth issues, and presentation issues. The following three companies help make kbAlertz.com possible.
  • myKB.com - Makers of this amazing Knowledge Base application you're looking at. They have a free version available at myKB.com.
  • DiscountASP - The worlds best hosting company. Especially for ASP.NET programmers.
  • ASP.NET Email - We send hundreds of thousands of e-mails a week, and we couldn't do it without this component.
  • Dot Net Charting - All the nice color graphs around the site, couldn't be there without them.

Find a mistake? Let us know about it. Use our new feedback option, to send us an e-mail.

Thanks for using kbAlertz.com
Scott Cate
