First impressions: Informative, nicely styled, slightly confusing.

Yeah looks pretty useful. I'm most curious to see how these forums will be integrated with/absorbed into it, if I correctly understood LL's intentions there.

Broken.

The blog hung after posting, twice. Firefox/Mac.

I think the fancy Javascript is probably responsible. It looks nifty to have turn right into a smiley, and so on, but it doesn't really provide significant benefits. Simplify simplify simplify.

Edit: http://jira.secondlife.com/browse/WEB-982

Woot, all the comments on older blog entries have been re-dated to yesterday, at least the article dates seem to be intact. Hopefully they'll take a little more care with any forum conversion so that old and new information doesn't get jumbled.

Email notifications are on by default, easy enough to stop but why oh why don't they make the default not to receive.

Check out my thread about the blog replacing the forums. It is happening.

On the front blog page, the grid status link is on the top right, under the SL Grid graphic. On the other blog pages, the link is in the footer. They've been twiddling the layout today, so that stuff might move.

I didn't see a way to add a picture to my profile in edit profile, despite there being instructions telling you you can and offering a link to the edit profile page.

I don't like being a little blue pawn.

Me either, and I can't help thinking there's a subliminal message here.

The colours are a bit awkward, and it looks cluttered as hell - or in the least, quite confusing to go around in, and the 'feature blogs' should be moved to a side bar, or to the bottom - the head blog section should be 'newest posts' or 'newest blogs'. Why set off a blog bomb, and have blogs all over the map, rather then just one main blog for all the posts. Not a blog with a list of blogs, with one main blog leading to links of other blogs.

Did that last sentence sound stupid? That's the new blog :l
