Welcome!Hello and welcome to my b:log. I'm Remy Sharp, a developer running my own business called Left Logic out of Brighton, UK. This place will mostly concentrate on web, code, a touch of business and some other personal pieces too - all available here or as a friendly RSS feed. Enjoy!
Latest: How I foot-gunned our newsletter this week
For the second year running, as part of our "stay sane" strategy for FFConf, Julie and I write and send a weekly newsletter. It's structured the same way so it means we have a much better line of sight as to what we have to say.
The open rate is usually around 40% (though I know some email systems synthetically do this), but our click rates are also usually pretty good.
This week however, open rate was 3% and click rate was just 8 clicks. Something was definitely…afoot.
