UK web design print monthly .net magazine (not the framework) has just published their April edition, which contains an opinion piece I wrote for them titled 'Better HTML emails'. In the piece I explain some of the background to the Email Standards Project, and how designers should be taking note and getting involved.
It's nothing new for readers of this blog, but we are trying to reach out to a wider audience and every step helps. If you are in the USA (and also other countries), .net magazine is published as Practical Web Design, so check it out. It might be something useful to leave on your designer colleagues' desk at work.
