Using wordpress to author mailchimp newsletters

We’ve been talking a bit about newsletters lately, and one of the issues, for me was the slightly clunky Mailchimp interface, which I think had something to do with the fact that newsletters used to take me AGES to put together. But, I came across this post today, which shows you smush Wordpress’ very easy interface for authoring, into Mailchimp’s amazing list management and sending features (which are brilliant, and worth their weight in gold and bananas).

@dirk, @vanessa, @Erika, @Carl - this might be something for us to consider when we continue the mailing list discussion in a couple of weeks.

Sounds like a good idea. I’ve never used the Mailchimp interface to put anything together.

Did we also post our newsletter on the web somewhere in te past?

Yup - we used to post them to the (wordpress) blog.
