Updated Features on CrossLeft

I finally had some time this weekend to get some of our functionality up to date on CrossLeft. We've brought back some old functionality, updated some existing functions and brought in some new features that I hope you will appreciate.

Old functionality

• Quotes - Quotes are back in full effect. You can add to your quote collection under "create content" and you can see other's favorite quotes here.
• Images - Good news for Angelo. You can once again upload images under "create content". You can also include images in your blog post. Also, you upload multiple images at once. This is significant upgrade over uploading file attachments.
• Invites - Invites are back in a big way. I would encourage you to use invites to bring your friends and colleagues into our community. The invite feature will allow you to track your invites to see who has responded and who hasn't. To invite folks use the side menu item.
• Email and Printer friendly pages - Now available in the top right corner of every post. Be sure to email good posts to friends and families.

Updated Functionality

• Fiverstar ratings - Ratings were upgraded...while you add your comment you can also add your rating of the blog post. You can also now vote without posting a comment.
• User points - We've updated user points and have put a monthly update on home page.

New Functionality

• Update Status - You can now update your status on CrossLeft similar to what you would do on facebook or twitter on the side navigation. We're hoping for facebook/twitter integration in the future. The latest status's show up on the home page...an individual's status can be seen on the side navigation when you click on their blog post.
• Favorites - You can now add blogs and discussion posts to favorites. Access your favorites on your account page.
• Workspace - You will now see a My Workspace on side navigation. It will allow you to manage your participation within the CrossLeft community.
• Commment subscribe - Do you have difficulty following along with all the conversations that are happening at once on the site? If so, you can now subscribe to comments of a particular post so that you get an email any time someone responds to you. The email contains a link that will take you right back to the post.
