I really like getting RSS by email, because I can avoid using another product (an RSS reader) but still get the feeds I want without having to browse out to them everyday. I've found I waste less time browsing blogs ever since I switched to a once-a-day digest.<p>It'd be nice to set the time you get the digest, in addition to specifying how often you get it. I also found the URLs on the right side (once you're logged in) are cut a bit short, perhaps you could display the full URL on hover?
Nice. I'd been looking for some way to consolidate information gathering into one app (email), and tried feedmyinbox at one point (ended up giving up on it because, at the time, it could not do digests).<p>With regard to the UI, I'd appreciate a cue telling me when to expect the next digest. I see that it's on a 24-hour cycle, but is that on the stroke of midnight? Midnight in which time zone? Is that 24 hours since the last time I added a feed?
It seems to me (and I might be wrong) that a large portion of your customer base might be people that are comfortable with email but not RSS, and thus could benefit from a sentence of copy on what exactly RSS does for them.
Not bad. Immediate thought is that I would like to have the ability to make more than 1 digest. I don't really want -everything- all at once. I might want all my deal feeds to come in one email, and all my news feeds to come in another email.<p>A simple [Add new digest] feature would be nice, where each digest can be set up on a different schedule, and with a custom email subject line. Then when you add, you add a feed to a particular digest.
Nice one. This is exactly what I was looking at.<p>A note about using PHP's mail function. Sending excessive mails from one IP may get it blacklisted, unless you take special measures. Sending mail reliably is hard and doing it on a large scale is even harder.<p>BTW, is it on shared host or a VPS?
Interesting.<p>One competitor, xFruits, has been around for a while and offers quite a few methods for transforming data from one form to another (RSS to email, mobile, voice, etc.)
