Lately I worked on notification e-mails for notfellchen.org. Initially I just sent text notifications without links to the site. Terrible idea! An E-Mail notification I send always has Call-to-Action or at minimum a link to more information.

I left the system like this for half a year because it kinda worked for me (didn’t suck enough for me to care), and I was the main receiver of these notifications. However, as the platform is developed further and more users join I need to think about more user-centric notifications.
