New feature: Profilactic Daily Digest
One of the new features of Version 2 that I really like is the Profilactic Daily Digest. It is a once-a-day e-mail alert that sends you all of your friends' content directly to your inbox.

And because we're not ad-supported, the Daily Digest sends you directly to your friend's content on whatever network it was published on. So if your friend posted a photo to Flickr, the e-mail link will send you directly to Flickr, not through some crumby Profilactic interstitial or summary page.

To enable your Profilactic Daily Digest, go to your Account Settings page (it's the last item in the My Tools menu in the header) and check the box that says "Send me a daily digest of my Friends' Mashup."

The next morning, you should have one waiting in your inbox.

NOTE: I have been monkeying around with the template to make sure it looks good in the various e-mail clients. This morning, I succeeded in creating a version that didn't look good in any e-mail client. So don't judge the new feature by this morning's... and possible tomorrow morning's :)... send.

As always, let us know if you have any questions or suggestions at feedback at profilactic dot com.
