Improved the User Interest Search, which lets you find other members that have similar interests to you.
For example, click on the Profile link over to the right just under my picture. In the "Interests" area for me you will see a list of items in blue. Click on an item, such as "piano", and it will pull up a list of other members that have entered piano as well.
Your profile can be updated by clicking the Edit link in the My Account area next to Profile.

Just added -- User "Interests" search. Go to a users profile and you can now click on the individual items in a users interests. This will bring up a list of users with similar interests.
If you have not set your interests you should go do that ASAP. You can get there by going to My Account and clicking on Edit next to your profile.
This will help people location you and your blogs.
While not perfect, the search works pretty well, even if your interest is not an exact "text" match with someone elses, it attempts to match it up.

Two things new today...
First, you will now get an email when someone comments on your blog. If you wish to turn it off you can do so in the Settings area for your blog. Just select "NO" next to the option for email notification.
Second, I goofed yesterday when working on the site. I added a new "Add comment" link directly to the main blog page and if you left a comment using that link, it was not attached to the post properly and would not display. Some of you may have noticed that your comments didn't appear at all if you used that link. I have fixed this problem and any comments left using that link will now appear... (they were not lost). Sorry about that!

It's going to take a few weeks before I can offer multiple templates for you to change. The reason is, I am constantly changing the way the pages are created and it's just too complicated to work on multiple formats while everything is in flux. Once things get settled in a week or two, I will concentrate on offering new blog templates, colors, etc. So please bare with me for a little bit. I want to have different templates as much as you! :) (You may notice a few test templates on my blogs, such as this one... those are just for testing purposes.)

Spent most of the day working on site design. Made a lot of cosmetic fixes and fixed a small bug I added (by accident) the other day to the advanced posting editor.
Notice the cleaner look on profile pages, blog pages, and the "how long ago" time on both the front page recent posts listings as well as the full blog list. Also, a new blog bar at the top of the blogs when you are editing your own.
Oh yes, I almost forgot I also added "Categories" for blogs. If you go to your blog settings you can choose a category to place your blog in. This will help people locate your pages.
Hope you like the changes! Please let me know. Feel free to drop any comments or questions in this section using the Comments section below.
