I'm waiting to read everyone's responses to this question before sending out the next one ;).

I kind of liked the way it used to be done in the old days. It sort of had a theme instead of a bunch of random questions. It might be nice to have a newsletter archive on AB too, for those of us that accidentally delete things. Doh! At least I read it first :)

You've gotten a newsletter? I've never gotten one. Didn't the Mythbusters do something on this and proved it was just a myth?

I don't check my email so I don't read it. They should have an award, or yeah a spotlight of the week on a certain member for different jobs well done.

Did you finally get yours? I'm still waiting for mine. : (
But I think putting things like people's accomplishments, fun questions that we may have missed, and so on would be cool. Of course, they may do that already for all I know.

They should have like an answer or member that they commend for a good job. Something not necessarily related to points, but someone that does good for the AB community. A lot of people that aren't on the leader board contribute quite a bit. =)

I think it should contain a recap of the blog, with some of the best comments, and maybe a visitors editorial by selected users. It should also be well publicized, I don't remember seeing anything about it.

I had my checkbox turned OFF for a while, then turned it back on (where it's been for some time), but I've YET to receive one. Maybe fix the notification flags so they work CORRECTLY? ;-)
I like the idea of an archive for it (NOT in the questions, please, but as a link at the bottom).
Since I've not seen one, I don't know what's in it, so I will reserve judgment and suggestions for now. ;-)

(Also posted on the blog entry but Chris, you deserve props for inspiring a blog entry, so here's my answer and have some points too!)
Well, I just subscribed to the AB newsletter, so I haven't received one in the past. But I think the newsletter could be taken down one of a few avenues:
1) A list of all of the "Topic of the Day" questions from the past (month?) ... "in case you missed them." I've always wondered what topics of the day I've missed... and some people may not even find out that their question was selected. So far as I know there's no way yet to access past topics of the day. This would be a good way to spice up the newsletter and recognize the best and most original of AB.
-OR-
2) Only send out the newsletter when there is significant news/milestones to report, and leave the questions for everyone's watch e-mails. (Perhaps this is already what is done)
-OR-
3) Once a month provide a profile of a staff member... then community leader... then perhaps open it up to the Answerbag community. What do the staff members like to do when they are not on Answerbag? What's their favorite food? How old are they? Stuff like that, without last names or the specific town they live in.

some random gossip, a few page three girls and the next weeks lotto numbers would be nice
Do you like to be a part of questions that inflame emotions? Or do you like to steer clear of them?

How come the AB time stamps on all the questions are about an hour or so earlier than actual time here?

Answerbag is really great at making their long time users leave aren't they?
