Here’s an interesting read and take on the Randy Cunningham broadside against Yahoo!
The thing is, it kind of is spam. I know that it’s not unsolicited and Randy doesn’t share his email lists and he has an unsubscribe link and honours all the unsubscribe requests promptly, but really, why do we need to use email for this? I used to subscribe to lots of email lists. Like ten years ago. But we have blogs now and RSS newsfeeds.
It brings up an interesting question or two: When and for what should you use email? And should you consider moving from email to RSS?
