Socialight / blog+news

As an early holiday gift, we’ve launched an all-new version of Socialight!

During the past few months, we’ve explored the dreams we have for Socialight and the suggestions and comments you’ve made and have done a comprehensive overhaul that we’re quite excited about. Here’s a quick overview of some of the changes:

• a brand new logo and web site design, and even a new name for our place-based messages - Sticky Notes. StickyShadows, RIP. Word.
• more ways to access Socialight while mobile - new mobile web (WAP) and text messaging (SMS) interfaces let you find and create Sticky Notes anytime, anywhere. http://socialight.com/help/mobile
• more ways to connect with other people – message users directly, post on users’ pages and invite contacts through easy address book importing.
• enhance the networks and content you’ve already got by importing GeoRSS feeds from sites like Flickr to share content from specific places. If you have your own site like a blog or a MySpace page, you can also embed Socialight widgets right there.
• tools for publishers (even you!) to create opt-in channels. WCities and Movie Locations Guide are already programming Socialight channels, with many more coming soon.

As always, we’d love to hear your feedback on anything, positive or negative. Don’t hesitate to reach out.

We hope you enjoy the upgrade!
