I want to make RSS Digest break even. It's a great service - even if I say so myself - and I keep getting nice e-mails and comments from the thousands of people who are using the service. We've just begun to clip 300,000 requests per day, and I have over 4000 valid e-mail addresses on the books (never e-mailed them once yet!).

RSS Digest 3 is under active development, and comes with a whole ton of scrummy new features that people will find useful.. feed splicing, conditional digesting (only see items containing certain words, etc), and, if I can get a new server, a lot more speed! I expect it to be widely released at the end of May, although I will open it up for beta testing before then.

It lacks one thing. Money. Donations come in fits and spurts, and rarely topple more than $100 a month. This is a great start, and I appreciate the donors so much, but it's not enough to expand further. I am willing to finance the project, as I have been, to a further extent, but without the possibility of the project breaking even, I am reluctant. I've come up with a number of options of how to progress. Any ideas?
