On June 12, 2006, the Nielsen Norman Group published the Email Newsletter Usability Report. This report found that
1. Only 19% of newsletters are thoroughly read by the recipients.
2.Readers' primary method of dealing with email newsletters is to skim them
3.The fact that email users continue to receive more and more email has caused them to become even more stressed and impatient when going through their inbox.
4.Email recipients are increasingly using spam filters as an easy way to eliminate newsletters they no longer wish to receive.
RSS is NOT the Answer at Least Not Yet
The Email Newsletter Usability Report found that 82% of email users had no idea what the term RSS referred to, and that people scan headlines and blurbs within RSS feeds with more abandon than they scan email newsletters!
