A couple weeks ago, we made some pretty big changes to the user registration process and user profile pages. We just released another set of updates with the goal of integrating these changes within the toolbar.
As a result, toolbar users will now automatically receive a notification/request to update their toolbars. Please update your toolbar when asked to do so! Here are the features/fixes we added (inclusive of toolbar features):
- Within the updated toolbar, selecting the option Manage Profile now sends you to the new profile management pages which show you how to increase your visibility, allow you to manage auto-tags, and display charts on your visibility and click-thru.
- Looking at user profiles from the toolbar now sends you to the updated user pages.
- If you reach/view a user page from our search page, or via a widget, you can now chat, email and add to favorites.
- When a user registers, we attempt to help them complete their profile faster by importing information from the Web site they indicated. In this release, we're improved support for blogspot, typepad, wordpress, myspace and livejournal.
- We've doubled the list of keywords and phrases by which users can connect with each other. This also greatly improves our auto-tagging abilities, and should make user connections more relevant as well.
Please let us know your feedback and suggestions!
