We just completed our second release of the year and have a couple enhancements I'd like to call to your attention. We'll be sending a full release note out on Monday that includes some more screenshots and details on a couple other minor enhancements. But I couldn't wait to get the word out on these two, so here you go.
We've been getting lots of positive feedback on the newest links UI. But several 
publishers suggested that they'd like to see a view of this feature that included links from only those advertisers with whom they have a relationship. I'm happy to announce that this feature is now available. Now you may view links added to the network in the past seven days for all advertisers in the network or for only your approved advertisers. You can further filter the list by link/banner, banner size, promotion type, and for short term promotions.
We've also heard from many publishers that they want more direct contact with our advertisers. To that end, your primary email address has been available to your approved advertisers for over a year now. We are now also offering an option on your communications preferences page that will allow you to expose your 
email address to advertisers in our network with whom you are not currently working. You will need to opt in to this setting to begin receiving direct communication from non-joined advertisers; all publishers are opted out by default.
We will soon be releasing a feature to advertisers that will enable them to recruit our network and view the contact information of those publishers that have opted in for non-joined advertiser communication. We think this will help to open up our network and facilitate many more relationships than we could establish through our own recruiting and matchmaking efforts.
We're very excited about this release and hope you'll find that these features will continue to improve publishers' experience with DoubleClick Performics and our advertisers. As always, please leave comments and suggestions if you have them. There will be a publisher webinar on March 5 to walk you through these and other recently released features, check your email for the invite.
