I ask this question from the opposite perspective - given that I have RSS feeds, Javascript feeds and a webpage, why do I continue to publish the email newsletter? And of course the answer is that the majority of my (known) readers sontinue to do it by email. But I can report that every time I send out an issue my email inbox gets hammered by anti-spam messgaes, on-vacation messages and assorted errors and failures. It comes with the territory and is really only a problem if I have to use Outlook Web Access from a cybercafe. Anyhow, this article tries to convince the authors of email newsletters that they should run their publication as a blog. Via Serious Instructional Technology, which (by the way) has moved.
