Topeka Buzz: Thursday, March 6
Short email today, folks–the beehive is tired and needs more honey. A couple of useful updates to LetterSwarm, though!

Even bees need naps…
My goal for Capitol Bee is that it’s always worth your time to read it.
If we’ve ever talked in person about these newsletters, I’ve always started by saying how important it is to me that it’s worth your time to open it. We’re all drowning in information and email, and I refuse to just add noise for the sake of the attention economy1 .
So, today’s blast is short. I’m recovering from one of the various viruses currently circulating, my thoughts are not as sharp. I expect to be skipping tomorrow’s Topeka Buzz, so enjoy your three day weekend!
That said, I did want to highlight a couple of things that might be useful.
LetterSwarm now supports login with an email
Up until now, if you wanted to use LetterSwarm you had to have a login through a Google account. We did this in the initial days for testing to help manage the volume (and watch for spam), but we’re ready to open up more broadly.
Login with Email or Google
We’ll be adding Facebook login soon!
Five campaigns are now live
For the early adopters out there who’ve already purchased tokens for printed letters, we now have five campaigns up and running. Some of you have sent in your own ideas for new campaigns; you can always email me with those suggestions, or if you’d like to be able to publish your own just ask.
LetterSwarm of the Day
With the recent launch of LetterSwarm, it’s now fast and easy to promote advocacy and letter-writing campaigns to express your view to your legislator(s). When appropriate, I’ll highlight an active “swarm” for your consideration. Today’s swarm is a request to write your state senator to oppose private school vouchers.
