The SNN UPDATE Index


The Original Newsletter for STF*Prodigy
In its day, SNN UPDATE was the semiofficial newsletter for the Prodigy online service branch of the online Star Trek RPG club, STF. It was widely respected by its Prodigy readership and often defined discussion threads among members. Its ability to entertain, and the consistency with which it did so, was unmatched by all but the most reliable comics of STF*Prodigy -- among them Dennis Hannigan and Mark Wilson.

The WeBB -- the Internet site on which all of STF is now situated -- broke SNN UPDATE's SNN monopoly when WeBBsights began publication. SNN Headline News, Mark Wilson's newsletter, began its run on Prodigy by competing with SNN UPDATE's final year; it lives on as UPDATE's most faithful imitator on the WeBB.

SNN UPDATE was published by Mike Ballway, its sole writer, on a somewhat-regular basis from 9 September 1994 to 25 August 1998. All told, there were 65 editions of SNN UPDATE.

Although 9 September is officially the date of the first SNN UPDATE "broadcast," that first issue ran under the title SNN News/Announcements Service and is not counted as a "real" SNN UPDATE. The below list is a compilation of every SNN UPDATE, in reverse chronological order.
