It's easy to have an opinion.

It's more work to have an opinion based on research.

How to choose an audience for your email list http://wp.me/p1366z-ez

@jasonfried I like that: “Fill the mind, don’t fill the page” ;)

1,000 email subscribers http://wp.me/p1366z-ev

37signals built their audience on RSS, but today's generation will need to build it on email.

I think email newsletters are fine (and easy to opt out of).

For me, it's the amount of transactional email I get that's the problem.
