You can add users in bulk to Gmail Groups in your contact via a csv file. But you can only send 500 e-mails a day from each e-mail address. So its not really a sustainable solution.

Use Icontact or Mailchimp then.

Thanks! MailChimp looks awesome. First one that Ive seen that it's the YC mold... fun, modern, easy. The rest of the services are all dinosaurs from the Web 1.0 stone ages.

I wonder what MailChimp's delivery records are like. Do you know if they have agreements with ISPs like the others?

According to their website, they have agreements with ISPs.

Here's a nice comparison of them vs IContact: http://www.mailchimp.com/compare/

On an unrelated note, i like the clean design on Newscred. (Yeah. Nothing to do with the post but just thought I let it out)
