Launched our email newsletter!

More than 2 years ago, Andy and I started a blog called VimTricks. It was a place for us to share tips, tricks, recipes, plugins, and helpful hints about how to use the Vim text editor. Both of us have been using Vim for a long time and we found that no matter how much we learned, there was always more. Furthermore, each of us had our own routines, customizations, and plugins that we used to do the same work. Whenever we pair programmed, we learned from each other. So we began sharing our tips to each other via a public blog.

We've long thought about changing the format of these tips and tricks to an email newsletter. Instead of having to check a website regularly, Vim tricks and tip would trickle into your inbox every week.

So we finally launched it! VimTricks is, for now, a free email newsletter. Our goal is to amass 5,000 passionate Vim users who want to receive tips and tricks twice a week. Who knows where it will go and if there will be a way to monetize it. But either way, we know that it will help us grow as Vim users by documenting what we learn throughout our careers and sharing it with others.
