While it definitely promotes our stories, I like the the "What we're reading" and "one more thing" which are usually interesting and external content. I think all this contributes to our fairly high open-rates and healthy organic subscription growth.
There are two other content driven newsletters for South Asia and Latin America but that global newsletter is my favorite.

- melony 5y agoRest of the world is a very neoliberal rag. Typical bay area socially liberal but fiscally conservative crowd. They will shake their fist and yell at the sky about alleged oppression elsewhere and praise the technocratic policies at the same time. Think New Yorker/The Atlantic for the SV crowd.
- kradeelav 5y agoI was going to say yeah, the title of the newsletter is a little ... revealing.
- tesseract 5y agoI assumed it to be poking fun at the use of that term in business (especially logistics) jargon.
- donohoe 5y ago"bay area socially liberal"? Um, if you say so. None are in the Bay Area is that helps. Most of the writers (almost 90%) live or work in the countries that are covered (so are outside the US and EU).
