Hi all. I'm pulling together some new features for the email and the site: an editorial calendar, enforcing more subject line diversity, and adding data to our company pages to make them more interesting. Look for that stuff to launch sometime this summer. Subscriber count is up 50% over the last month, that's been nice to see. Please continue to tell your colleagues about the newsletter, and as always just hit reply if you have any comments or suggestions. Eliot
