codeblog: JSON, JSON, Jason

source Last week, I walked through a bit of a tutorial on how to use data feeds to populate and repeat blocks of html content in html emails for Sailthru’s personalization service.

codeblog: okay, now we’re coding; what about fixing the process?

source url This week’s coding adventure at Sailthru was fairly similar to last week, but my workload was much more varied in terms of coding HTML emails vs. actual programming (i.e. using Sailthru’s scripting language, Zephyr). I spent quite a bit more time digging through Sailthru’s dev docs to find solutions to programming challenges in order to add content and user data to a variety of email templates. Continue Reading…

codeblog: slicing & dicing….and breaking html emails

https://penielenv.com/zm198x0 This past week at Sailthru was all about digging back into the painful process of coding HTML emails.

The latter can be helpful, but it’s never a panacea in the world of web development. I knew this, but now I know it even better. Continue Reading…

codeblog: a gradual ramp-up, a new title, and “implementing” client dev projects

The week at Sailthru started off a bit slow, with some follow-up from last week’s first full html email coding session.

Song of the Day: The Barr Brothers – “Even The Darkness Has Arms”

Ok, so I’ve written these guys up before, but this song is new to me and just so f-ing good…

I have no idea if the Barr Brothers are working on a new album, but I just hope they keep releasing new tunes like this. Keep ’em coming guys!
