Quick update on 3 new features I added today:
(1) YouTube videos embedded in comments -- In comments, if you paste a youtube url, it will embed the video and you can play it directly in the comment.
(2) Favorites -- Kinda forgot about this one, but I finally got around to completing it. You can access all of your content on the site including content you have posted, as well as content you have 'favorited'. You can get to your content from My Home -> Favorites.
(3) Email Notifications -- When you receive an email notification for a message received or a comment, the actual message will be in the email as well as the link to view and respond to the message / comment.... read more

Hey guys. I haven't put up a FC blog in a while, so I thought i'd give everyone an update on what's been going on with the site. I've put up some new features and i'm going to outline them below because you may have not been aware of some.
Twitter
We've joined the band wagon and got on Twitter. You can follow FitConnect's newly added content there.
Messaging
If you haven't noticed already, I added a cool little feature to when you are composing a message. You will see a dropdown of your Fitsters names with an icon as you type (sorta like facebooks). In addition, if you simply click in the "To" field you will get a dropdown of the 10 people you message the most on FitConnect, so you can quickly send them a message.
Contacts Importer
Our contacts importer allows you to enter your email address for various email clients (gmail, yahoo, etc) and it will pull back your en... read more

Last nite we got our 1000th member on FitConnect, which is a great milestone for us. I am excited at how the site has grown, but more importantly grateful for the type of people who have joined and made FitConnect what it is today.
In the next few months (probably around the new year) FitConnect will get a face-lift with a new design and the addition of the exercises/tracking section -- yeah I know, I talked about this section awhile ago, but delays happen :)...
Anyways, I wanted to personally thank a few people on the site for their consistant posting of quality content and interesting information.
Ray
Ray recently joined FitConnect and has been climbing the ladder in the rankings. His blog posts and tips have helped many people on the site. View his blog here and his profile here.
Ozzie Ocean

We’ve added more updates in the past few weeks, here’s a heads up on what they are.
1. Blog HTML Editor - You can edit your blogs to bold and italicize words, create text hyperlinks, and insert additional images.
2. Automatic Google Ping – Now when you submit your blog, we automatically ping google to let the crawler know you’ve made a post.
3. Tag FitConnect Content – Our newest feature allows you to tag relative content to your blogs, fitclips, and groups. For example, if you create a several low carb recipes and then write a blog about low carb diets, you can tag the recipes to your blog. Now readers will see more of your content.
4. Online / Offline Notification – At the top right corner of everyone’s profile is an icon letting you know whether the user is online or not. If it is blue, the user is online – if it is grey, the user is offline.
5. Browse Online Members - Find out who's onl... read more
