Yes!

Ben Niolet and I also had a good chat about a broader problem with our
email-sending: we're currently flying pretty blind.  We know how many
emails we send, and how many people eventually click through to take
some action in response.  But we know practically nothing about the
funnel in between.  Do they make it to inboxes?  Do people actually open
them?

I hope to work closely with Ben's team in Q3 and beyond to get better at
measuring the success of our emails.  There's almost certainly some
low-hanging, user-respecting fruit we could be picking to get better
metrics on this front.

I liked this and related ideas so much that I made "Connected
Experience" one of three top-level goals for FxA for the rest of the
year [1].  Let's explicitly promote "percent of users who have multiple
devices connected" to a core success metrics for 2015.

"H2 2015" is on page 3, but apparently you can't deep link into a google
doc, because what even is this "web" thing anyway....
