Quotes of the Day

E-mails sent out Wednesday through Friday will yield the highest open rates. The highest click rates are obtained on e-mails delivered on weekends. Start your e-mail campaigns on a Tuesday or Thursday and then test the waters from there. Once your campaign is established, try a weekend, and compare it to your other results. Avoid scheduling e-mail blasts on holidays and holiday weekends. The best time to send an e-mail blast is between 7 a.m. and 10:30 a.m. I recommend a maximum of once per week, and would average two to three times per month for any e-mail campaign that does not have a per-prescribed frequency. [2007] - Bruce C.

The first generation of wearables (such as Jawbone UP, Fitbit tracker original, Fitbit Ultra, Fitbit Flex, and Misfit Shine) could, using motion sensors, roughly tell when someone was asleep or awake. However, the major problem was that you could be awake--but not moving--in the middle of the night, and the device would classify that as sleep. A new generation of sleep trackers that can record more aspects of your physiology, for example, skin temperature, skin conductance and heart rate. Some may, or will eventually, have the ability to detect changes in the pattern of heart beats, called heart rate variability. Such measures, in combination with motion sensors, could, in the future, potentially improve the identification not only sleep and wakefulness, but also distinguish light sleep (N1 an N2), REM, and deep sleep (N3). At this time, the testing of these devices indicates they're able to detect light sleep and REM but are not so good with deep sleep and wake. [2021] - Judith R. Davidson
