And,
obviously, there are some new features added as well:
Crossposting:
You can now
use your Profy blog to manage your blogs even if they are not based on Profy –
we have made it possible for you to crosspost your Profy posts to your blogs on
Blogger and Livejournal. Sure enough, more platforms coming soon so stay tuned
as we are working hard to make Profy your real one-stop platform for blogging.
Tagging
people:
Even in
alpha you could use tags to identify posts in your own blog and in your feed
reader. Now we take tagging on Profy to the new level – you can tag your
friends on Profy to organize them and to make it easier for yourself to find
people when you want to contact them privately, for example.
Modifications
to the top panel on your blogs:
We have
modified a lot the top panel you see when you view your own blog or blogs by
other users. Now it is possible to report spam blogs or blogs with otherwise
inappropriate content. You can also login easier to your own dashboard using
this top panel and new users can create their own blogs when they like what they
find on your blog, for example.
Subscription
to blogs written by your friends:
We have
changed the process of subscribing to blogs created by your Profy friends – you
will now be able to choose if you actually want to read your friend’s blog.
Invitations:
While we
have significantly reduced waiting time for invitations approvals (in fact, we
have enabled them to be approved automatically unless the servers experience
the load they can’t cope with), we decided that we were not perfectly ready for
open registration yet (we simply did not want our current users to experience
downtime while the new bloggers arrive). But all the current and new users
receive 5 invitations to invite their friends to Profy by email so if you want
to share your Profy experience with your friends, feel free to do so now – your
friends will be let in immediately and they won’t have to wait for their
invites to be approved.
