Erika here - just clicking in to share with all of you the latest site updates tonight.

You will notice the main page is starting to come together from a basic framework to a more well-rounded feel. I've had a few late nights of the laptop in bed for that achievement. Once the css artist takes over, we will see miracles happen very quickly. This is going to be a beautiful network, both in members and look.

From the Member Experience end, my goal is to make your profiles relevant and fun at the same time. A place to collect your content from other networks into your central profile. So, I've added some shiny new things to the network profile pages.

First of all, the RSS feeds will now reflect on your profile, so you can mash all of your RSS feeds from other blogs and sites here to your main profile page. Just go to your hub page, click on RSS FEEDS and ADD FEED. You can stack up to 5 feeds right now, with more soon. Any content or media will feed and post.

Profile pages also now have a "My Widgets" box iin your PROFILE editor at the end of your questions. Just enter the code and stack your widgets from other sites. They need to be about 200 pixels or less to keep your profile in alignment. I hope to get a box for widgets in the larger profile space soon. For now, I am posting my wide widgets in blog posts, so that they are visible, and I can easily access the code later on when the wider module is available.

Also, there is "MY SCOOP" module showing your stats, modules for your ACTIVITY, your MEDIA, VIDEO and up to 99 friends showing at a time.

In the coming weeks, in addition to the Network makeover, I'll be posting some "funability" in the form of badges you can display on your profile. (no more hints on that for now!) We will also have some Network award badges in the near future to award to the best profiles, media galleries, blogs, stats etc.... and will then have a "featured" module on the Home page to showcase the winners.

If you have any input or inspiration, feel free to email me and send me a link to what you are thinking about. I want to know what you will find useful! I have so many imaginative ideas for what I would find relevant on the network rolling around, my head looks like Russell's brain!

Russell's Brain!

Charles & Russell- You deserve some applause for SoYouSaid!
