Because of spam, the future of emails and email newsletters is that there is none. Enter Google. Google forbids the use of AdWords in email newsletters (where it would be remarkably effective). Why? Suppose Google created an email service, made it spam free, and allowed it to support advertising (as Reuters is supposedly reporting, though the link hasn't shown up yet). This may only be a rumour, but it has legs. Join permission based highly focused advertising, Blogger and RSS, no spam, and Google's reputation for goodness and you have a winning combination.
