This January 22nd, Sunday morning at 1am ET (
see this in your timezone), we plan to perform some server upgrades that will require us to bring our US1 data center offline for roughly 5 minutes.
Details are on the MailChimp blog. New Features in v6.7
We recently launched some new (free) features in MailChimp:
- New option to automatically convert all embedded videos into our email-safe video merge tags (extremely handy for RSS-to-email publishers)
- Instead of using our segmentation builder, you can now just upload an email list in order to build a quick "static segment" inside MailChimp.
- Discount on your MailChimp account if you activate our 2-factor security app, Alter Ego (we really, really want to help you make your accounts more secure).
- New Publicity Settings for your lists (see "Wavelength" below)
Read about the new features on our blog. Introducing Wavelength
We just announced a new service called
Wavelength. It analyzes you, compares you to all the other 1.2 million MailChimp users, and then recommends publishers who are similar to you (by showing you pretty-pretty screenshots of campaigns). It can be really handy for people who want to find and partner with like-minded publishers to grow their lists, or just as a tool for discovery and ideas.
Wavelength details, and a demo video on the blog. Gentle reminder: we launch new features roughly every 4 weeks. The next round will go live around January 30th. We'll keep you posted.
