| I am really liking it, although have been pressed for time the last several days so not on here as much as I would like. It has all the things I liked before, plus nice addition with the featured member. And the smilies of course... |

| No Abe -- I know what's next! LOL! I'm going to add a newsletter to the forum with a link on the navigation bar. The idea came from Susie when she requested all the marketing tips together in one place. The newsletter will contain information sent to me by members of the forum. Good idea? |

Minutes ago, I received an email saying that the article should be up by the end of the week. As soon as I know more, I'll post a link to the article. |

| Hi Shelagh,
I've just seen the changes you've made to the Featured Author page... my other 'alf didn't recognise me! Seriously, the page looks great. Thanks once again for making me the first featured author... |

| Hey Shelagh, the list of daily visitors is growing steadily and things seems to be really moving along. Great to see the progress and that people are coming in and branching out. |

| Hi Pam, The forum is ticking along nicely! Anyone interested in the stats can click on the | Statistics | link at the bottom of the page. The first newsletter will be added on Sunday with information about how to use the forum and all the new features: Featured Member, Newsletter and ChatBox (members can chat online: Jenny and I had quite a conversation last night!) |

| The chat feature is great. Shelagh and I road tested it last night. It's a bit confusing at first, because you assume you can type under your name, but you can't. There's a box at the right hand corner of the page--just use that. Great fun! |

| Hi Zada,
On the home page, at the bottom of the page under the list of members who have visited the forum during the last 24 hours, you will see a link asking you to join the ChatBox. You can go there anytime. If you want to chat at a particular time, send a pm and arrange a chat. If another member is on the boards at the same time as you and you have a question for them, send a pm and ask them to join the ChatBox.
To communicate, type in your message and press "return". |

| Thanks Shelagh. I was looking all over on this page trying to find it. The home page makes more sense, which is probably why my simple little mind couldn't figure it out! |

| Wow those stats are cool. Would be even better if you were somehow getting paid for all your hard work Shelagh; when you see it all laid out like that not only is it an amazing testimony to what your`re doing, it a real comment on the amount of info, support and smiling we want to share. |
