Looks as if HTML5 are providing a semi-solution for video content in mails:

Reflextions? Use or Loose?

Hey. I would like to throw out a question. I have spoken to a mail tool developer who delivers functionality where RSS feeds are displayed in the mail. I was very suspicous to this but as I crawled around the web I found a visual basic and C# tutorial explaining how you can convert a RSS feed into a picture. I guess this would be a way, perhaps the only way, of doing it.

Does anyone have any other ideas? How would you fetch RSS without scripts?

It's a thought, I realize I have very few people I can ask questions about mine, or others I might help newsletters. What makes something that is passed around vs something that has a low reader rate. What tactics are working today will be different next quarter. I'm no expert but I love to problem solve and learn. :)

I'd open with if you have a question or comment on something published make a forum post here, toss up your questions (don't forget to tell us who your audience ideal is) with a link to the archive and we'll see what eyeballs and ideas we can rustle around it though.

Great idea.
