Although some are saying that the email age is coming to an end, the data shows the opposite is true - it increases our reliance on mail. With Gmail adding new features all the time and services like Posterous, Twitgether, Evernote, Remail and others working seamlessly with my Gmail account, I am always on the hunt for services that make email even more useful. Enter NutshellMail, which I read about on Web Worker Daily.
NutshellMail Brings Twitter and Facebook Right to Your Email Box
Well worth it - this is a fantastic service. Despite the fact that I've only played with it for less than three hours, I can foresee greater effectiveness from the different networks with the regular, one-stop-shop updates. The best part is the topic filtering out of Facebook - exactly what I care about, nothing more.
So, short story long, thanks for the tip and recommendation.
I'm going to be communications chair for my IABC chapter next year. The chapter's communications really need some work. We have a linked in group that no one really uses and only half the members have signed up for, and aside from member emails and postcards (which usually arrive late), that's pretty much it.
I'd like to amp things up a notch but I'm struggling with finding the right tool to do it. Ideally, I'd love to create a group reading room, like a Google Reader, that would synthesize all the best RSS feeds coming in on communications and social media issues and make them available for our readers, both members and non. Our Linked In group I suppose would do for microblogging and general member communications. A group IABC Twitter or Yammer of course can be good too. I would love to be able to funnel all those things into one site with portals to each of these multiple applications sharing one page. Is this even possible? I may be able to get some programming help to get all these things strung together at my agency. But am I biting off more than I can chew?
