MailChimp Makes Me Want To Design Emails

I've had some experience in the past, designing emails for email campaigns. It was always something I hated to do. The limitations of the medium can be frustrating. It was almost as bad as designing custom Myspace sites, and dealing with all the garbage code that makes that task such a joy.

Along Comes MailChimp

MailChimp gets me excited about email marketing. They have some incredible features, that you can't find anywhere else. Plus, the design team behind the site is top notch. Every time I check out the site, I get inspired to create.

I have barely even started using MailChimp, but I can already tell I'll be using it for a while. While writing this post, I've been sitting here pondering who I can convince to start an email campaign, just so I can play with some of the MC features!
