I'll post a picture of my "Handwörterbuch" when it arrives. I don't think it'll look like that

.

Am I correct in thinking that the new rule is that "ß" is only used after a long vowel sound? So you have "dass" and "Schloss", but "Straße"? I guess that makes it easier to remember when to use "ß" and when to use "ss".
