Letter.ly, The Easy Way To Enable Paid Subscriptions

I've been experimenting with how to effectively use Letter.ly on my blog for a while now. While I am doing that, I suggest you check them out yourselves. It's a neat product, and based off the latest e-mail I got from the Letter.ly team (copy and pasted below), it seems like development is in full swing. If you are into paid subscribers, I have no problem encouraging you to give Letter.ly a spin.

Writers,

I hope this note finds you well... just a quick update about some exciting new letter.ly action.  A small cadre of people got together to push the letter.ly project forward, so you should see stability and new development pick up.

features that are in production as of today...

*1.  attachments:  *most requested feature, now live... so you can now do photos, video, docs, audio, whatever attaches you can 'sell'

*2.  comments:  *in earliest form, now when users 'reply' to your letter you get an approval notice... if you approve the letter it goes out to your subscribers and the commenter shows up on your letter.ly page... this is V1 of this -- more coming

*3.  password reminders:  *yah, you probably needed that :)

*4.  new subscribers automatically get your most recent letter...  *a good feature that people wanted... because it is annoying to sign up for something and not get any gifts until the writer next writes!

*5.  robustness*  we had some issues with HTML emails in, and the like -- you may have seen blank emails go out.  these are fixed now, things should be swimming along

*next up: design, better comment flow, and some treats worth waiting for :)

*If you want to follow updates, there is now a twitter account http://twitter.com/letter_ly

Regards,

The Letter.ly Team
