Minti just got another update and here are a few of the key improvements to the site :

  • Groups have been added - There are:
  1. public groups (such as for each country and for parents with children born in the same year) - where members can contribute to a collborative blog or chat via a group conversations.
  2. private groups which any member can form and then invite others to join into their own private area.  Maybe you have a parenting group you are a member of and you want a private place to make posts in a blog format or chat with one another about the latest goings on in the conversation area- start your own group and be the administrator and controller of who gets to join in :)
  • Forums have been added - you can now chat about a range of topics organised into popular forums
  • Daily emails are now available summarising activity on articles, blogs or by members who are on your “watch list” - these emails are relevant to your requirements and the watch list is easy to edit if you are receiving too much detail
  • There is a new Blog calendar to help you track your blog entries by date and make it easy to recall when you made your last Blog update
  • There are some pretty flags next to the member names to make countries clearer
  • We have revised the ranking formula to make it more likely for those participating actively in the site to improve their ranking (through advice, voting, comments and regular visits)
  • The Member’s menu’s have been simplified and the look of the member homepages revised :)

Let me know if you find anything else that has been updated :)  I am worn out from testing it all and would love to hear from anyone who finds any issues with the new release (remember we are still beta testing this site ;) )

Enjoy the new stuff and have fun !
