• Friends Function: At the top of the page you can now see which of your friends are online and if you have any new messages from them. If you go to the 'Friends' page you will also be able to see all of the latest posts from your friends making it much easier to keep up with people.

• New Entry Layout: When you make a new entry it's now very easy to insert media such as videos, images and youTube clips. You can do all of this on one page without needing pop-up windows or to go to other sections of the site. We wanted to make it quick and easy to make entries with everything at your fingertips.

• Post Tagging: This is a feature we've had a lot of requests for, you can now add tags to your post so that people in the community can easily find your entries on various subjects. It's a great way of organising things and can let you call up all related posts with just one click.

• Extended Profiles: You can now add things you like to your extended profile and then see which other users share those interests, it's a great way to meet like minded bloggers.

• New Spam Filter - You won't need to enter the word shown in the anti-spam image every times. We have a great new anti-spam mechanism to make it possible to stop spam without the need for the captcha letters.

• Insert Videos and Last.fm to your sidebar: You can now easily add auto-playing youTube videos or the last.fm player, which plays music from your favourite artists, to your blogs sidebar.

I hope you all enjoy the new features, we've tried to give you everything you could need to bring all of your online media together into your 20six homepage.

What's more all of your existing data, images and layout are safe, it remains as it was unless you change it. If you need any further information, just give me a shout and I'll be happy to help,

See you on the blogs,

Pete
