If you didn’t already get it, we sent out an email to most of our past and present clients, friends, colleagues, drinking buddies and facebook friends.  Thanks for all of the positive replies, I’ll make sure to respond to everyone who wrote back within a day or two.

We don’t email our list very often (once a year or less).  If anyone wants to follow us more closely than that, subscribe to this blog or follow us on twitter (@brendannee @jedhorne).

Many of our clients send out emails to their constituents/customers/subscribers/fans using a variety of platforms.  We’ve had good luck with Campaign Monitor and PHPList.  Campaign Monitor is fully hosted and costs money, but provides a slick interface, decent analytics and bounce tracking and supports custom templates and custom user fields.  PHPList is an open source application that you can host yourself.  As such, its customizable in any way you’d like and its completely free.  The interface isn’t as streamlined and intuitive as campaign monitor but it does the job.
