Interesting - I'm not sure I have this option. I can "View with Google Drive" but I don't think I have a "Open With Sheets" type option within my mac's right-click menu. That would definitely get me…

So I spent some time with Front which seemed SO promising, but I'm kind of shocked that their Sequences only works if you have a .csv upload. Very strange!

Does it integrate with Zapier (or allow specific search strings)? Would love to talk more!

That's a phenomenally thorough answer, and the Zapier logic is a smart way of doing it - I was originally looking to use the Zapier's "reply to email" gmail extension, but storage is a really smart…

Three cheers for Overcast. The only two features I wish it had: mark specific episodes as “favorites” and give me a history of listened-to podcasts. Everything else about it is the GOAT.

9 times out of 10 I'm using Bear or TextEdit on my desktop, but I've started checking out Sunsama after seeing a tweet from @merci.

It's still evolving, but it does feel nice to have a rolling board…

Are you looking for a source of truth for internal use, or external ad audiences?

For internal analysis/source-of-truth for your customers, if you're using Segment's base plan (or MetaRouter or…

Hit send too soon! The behavioral analysis is top-notch.

Meanwhile Metabase doesn't have my favorite SQL editor of all time, but the drag-and-drop functionality for your database is excellent, it has…

Amplitude and Metabase continue to be the tools I'd take to any new project I work on.

Our stack is pretty well built-out at this point—

Segment tracks everything that happens on our site and sends it to a data warehouse. We poke into that data using Metabase and now Periscope/Sisense…

Are you doing "blast" or "one to one"? I spent a long time working on SMS on the political/non-profit side, and was always impressed with the products Hustle had to offer.

My personal site, https://ezramechaber.com runs on Eleventy on top of Glitch - the starter I built off-of is here.

My site has a blog which isn't surfaced since I don't write very often, but it runs…

I really like https://www.wappalyzer.com/ for a quick, easy look-up of what a given site appears to be using. It's far from perfect, but gives me quick insight at least into the customer-facing…
