Do you send email newsletters?

Here’s some latest stats that might boggle you!

“…the average time allocated to a newsletter after opening it was only 51 seconds. “Reading” is not even the right word, since participants fully read only 19% of newsletters. The predominant user behavior was scanning. Often, users didn’t even scan the entire newsletter: 35% of the time, participants only skimmed a small part of the newsletter or glanced at the content. People were highly inclined to skip the introductory blah-blah text in newsletters. Although this text was only three lines long on average, our eyetracking recordings revealed that 67% of users had zero fixations within newsletter introductions.

With Less than 50% Market Share, IE Is Now Losing the Browser Wars

First time IE drops below 50% - sign of things to come. I’m sure Redmond is hoping IE9 will turn that around.
