Hello, thanks @bramk for the hunt. I'm the maker of NewsletterStash, a hand-curated directory of the best newsletters where you can browse by categories, frequencies and types. Plus you can check the samples and archives in one place.
I've been a junkie newsletters subscriber since i discovered the internet. They are the easy and fun way to discover great content curated by experts.
My plans with NewsletterStash is to make it a community where publishers and subscribers connect with each other. If you have some suggestions or feedback please post it here, i will be happy to discuss more.
Thanks ;)

@ossamaweb Just a thought... would be good to have a link / button where I can subscribe to the newsletters.

@craigjbarber "website" button will take you directly to the subscription form! is that what you mean?

@ossamaweb I guess I expected the main link to actually take me to somewhere where I can quickly subscribe. At the moment there is no direct link / prompt to subscribe. Some of the sites you click thru and there is a subscribe box, others it's just a website. For example if I was to do it, I would make the '#Startup Curated' main header that is black a link that takes you to a subscribe box on their site, or a the very least change one of the buttons underneath to subscribe that takes you directly to a subscribe box. Your users would love it as would your Authors featured on the site. It's a great product, just some suggestions on how to make it better. The primary call to action should be to subscribe : )

@craigjbarber I get your point, but with #startup Curated, it does point to a clear signup form (just with the latest newsletter below). But it would be extremely cool if you could actually enter your email address on NewsletterStash itself.

@ossamaweb Awesome collection. I always have love and hate relation with newsletters as I end up subscribing to lot of them and reading none.
May be you can create a one single place where anyone can subscribe/unsubscribe to all these newsletters and customize the reading experience.

@ossamaweb Awesome! Now I know where Newsletterstash is heading to ;) This is also an interesting example of how our old ideas (failed/untried) can become relevant in long scheme of things.
