Why Can't Email Do More With Your Inbox? ·
Jun 05, 2009It’s really sad that email hasn’t advanced to a state where you can add or include more information straight into your Inbox. When will emails get the redesign they deserve?
I understand the limitations with getting viruses or really, really bad spam that weren’t intended for you, but email as a web marketing tool is still the same as it ever was -simple information to your inbox. No one monetizes on it, which I imaging is difficult to do since you can’t add javascript to send ads from any of the top online ad franchises, and unless you have a million subscribers no one is going to pay you to put their ad into your Inbox for a few returns. But wait, maybe they will if you consider the type of information being sent out. Maxim has a great implementation of this, but you’d have to subscribe to their emails to see what I mean.

It seems like only yesterday when we first introduced applications in Yahoo! Mail. Well, starting today, we’re launching a handful of new and VERY cool apps in Yahoo! Mail — all focused on enabling you to do more, share more and save time in Mail.
