Update: There is so much content this week that I may save some content for next week. The newsletter for this week will also be posted on this forum by Wednesday. No RSS feeds available yet.

This would save me enough time that I'd happily pay £s per newsletter! Thanks so much for offering to put this together.
That sounds like a neat idea! Could you also post the newsletters here? My news-reading methodology relies on feeds (Atom and RSS), so it’s easier for me to follow the feed of this board, but I don’t want to miss anything you write in the newsletters either.
I’m also running a newsletter with Mailchimp, and emails with the two-column layout reliably got spam-filtered by Gmail, just in case you were considering it.
The newsletter I send out in emails could be considered an abridged version, as there are minutiae and minor updates from other blogs and organizations which I don't include. I was thinking if I published the newsletter on this forum, I would include those as well. I'm not sure. However, I'd put major links first anyway. I'll start doing this next week.
Hi everyone,
I'm starting an effective altruism newsletter. I myself try to read all the blogs and updates coming from various effective altruism sources, as a matter of habit. I notice between charity evaluators and meta-charities, think tanks and research organizations, and top charities across all favored cause areas, there are over 20 sources and websites to check out.
To keep tabs on all this, I've set up an Effective Altruism Newsletter.
If you're interested in what it would be like, the sample newsletter for this week can be found here:

You can sign up by sending an email with "Subscribe" in the subject line to [email protected]
I'm hoping to set a Mailchimp system for the newsletter in a week or two, as well as an RSS Feed. In the next several weeks, I intend to set up RSS Feeds or mailing lists for specific cause areas, such as:
If you would like to wait until the email subscription system is improved, or a general or cause-specific RSS Feed, please still send an email to [email protected]. Let me know what you're interested in following or subscribing to. Then, I'll ensure your on that list when it gets started, and I'll notify you about it.
Thanks so much Evan, Harvard EA will greatly appreciate that. I've been planning on doing something like that for our semi-involved members but never got around to actually doing that.
