Besides work correspondence, there’s only ONE email that I read every single day — the THRILLLIST. It’s a mailing that isn’t so saturated with stuff someone wants to sell that it’s intolerable, and there’s always a “recommended for you” section that, for the most part, is targeted to my interests. Don’t misunderstand… you will be served up ads — that’s just part of it. But when you click from email to read an article you won’t have pop-ups (especially annoying are the page pop-ups that — on a MAC using Safari — require you to either force-quit the browser or click to go to another garbage page).
For example, today the recommendation was for “The Best BBQ Restaurants in Louisville.” I’ve never been to the “Frankford Ave Beer Depot” or “Momma’s Mustard, Pickles & BBQ.” Heck, I’ve never been to “Shack in the Back” or “FDKY BBQ” either! Alright, so I’ve not eaten at even one of the recommended places — but I will now!
Go ahead and subscribe… I’m pretty sure you won’t regret it. And, it has Dharma’s seal of approval!
