Background
NutshellMail was founded in October 2008 by David Lyman, Mark Schmulen, Scott Mury, and David Neubauer. NutshellMail initially launched with a focus on email consolidation. However, as social networks and social media such as Facebook, MySpace and Twitter dramatically increased their user bases, NutshellMail released support for these services and made social network aggregation and interaction the primary focus of its development.
On May 24, 2010, NutshellMail was acquired by Constant Contact.
In September 2010, NutshellMail discontinued their email consolidation service altogether to focus on social media based features.
In February 2016, Constant Contact announced the service shutdown for March 22, 2016.
