Or maybe just do it automatically? Yep, that’s my take. Why? My alma mater Wufoo made it a choice of the person making the form. The default was to not do that, which I understand. Even though I’m a fan, it also feels like that’s the wrong choice for a default. It’s also interesting to…

Looks like Jessica Hische moved her client email builder tool thingy from her site over to Studioworks. Makes sense! They are building out a little section of tools over there to help creatives, and this fits in nicely. Probably a nice little traffic-driver, which is one of my favorite little SaaS tricks. The point of…

You can always change your email address. Just make a new one and forward the old one to the new one (for a while). But when you’re using a service for email, you’re at their whim on what they allow. Gmail will certainly allow you to make a new one and foward the old one…

It’s: The Forwardable Email: A way to help others actually make that connection they said they would They explain it in more detail on the site, but the gist is that if someone tells you they’ll connect you with somebody that is very appealing to you to be connected with, don’t just follow up with…

Just a little appreciation for the work that most email providers put into filtering spam from our inboxes. I feels like it stopped working for a few hours this weekend on my Gmail account and maybe 20-30 slipped through for me. Not a big deal, cleaned up, and it’s all back to normal. But I’ve…

I feel like I can’t let this blog exist without mentioned the existence of Strong Bad. He’s this old-internet comedy series character (part of the Homestar Runner series) who’s bits included reading the email he gets from viewers. From Wikipedia: n 2021, Polygon declared Strong Bad an icon. In a tribute, they note that “Strong Bad Email…

Just got two emails that I thought were quite nice. It reminds me of an opinion I’ve really held strong for quite a while. I even made a template for it one time, and I wrote: Here’s one from Cursor: I find a “button” style could be added to that short list of OK things…

Nic Chan: A “fuck off contact page” is what a company throws together when they actually don’t want anyone to contact them at all. They are usually found on the websites of million or billion dollar companies, likely Software-as-a-service (SaaS) companies that are trying to reduce the amount of money they spend on support by…
