So, I’ve been considering some things to allow people to keep up with the site without trying to remember to visit the site every single day/week/month/however frequently they check.

I’ve never been hot on the idea of email mailing lists, because I’m never good about keeping them up and running. I could possibly set up a way for people to sign up to receive updates when the site updates, but that just starts feeling like spam after a while. Another thing I considered as an alternative for a long time was creating a newsletter, a consideration that brings a variety of options with it. I already offer an RSS feed, but I know I have some non-tech saavy people visiting the site.

Thoughts? If you read the site, how would you prefer to get information about the site? Do you use the RSS feed? Would you prefer receiving email updates? If I could throw together a newsletter that highlighted new posts around the site with maybe some bonus material (themed link lists, seasonal thoughts and tips, etc.), would that appeal to you?

Leave me a comment, let me know what you think.
