Welcome, @DanDotLewis! What's your favorite NIK newsletter/topic so far?

@DanDotLewis I just signed up, so I might figure this out after, but is there a business model behind this? Advertising? Selling stuff?

He's a friend. I used to work for him at Wikia.

I really like http://nowiknow.com/the-case-of-..., although there's a recency bias there :)

A few things: 1) I wrote a book 2) I run ads/sponsorship units 3) Reader support 4) Amazon affiliate stuff at the bottom

Dan, what are some of your favorite newsletters? How do you think the newsletter space has evolved the last few years? Seems to be a renewed interest in starting/running them and a few are getting funded - any recommendations for people just starting out? How did you get started?

@dshan I like Hacker Newsletter, Next Draft, Today in Tabs, a few others but I'm tired and can't think straight. I really like the space and think it's re-emerging. Advice: be content, not marketing.
