This week, I have rolled out a few new features. Nothing major, but small things designed to improve your experience on this site. Things such as email subscriptions, related posts, Microsoft points icon, and a return of sharing.

Today was the first day of E3, and microsoft kicked it off with a bang, revealing many things at their press conference. Things from innovative new games to xbox live features. The new games, while cool looking, don’t really pike my interest. However, the xbox live update looks like it will be amazing.

Well, today, after getting fed up with MU over a few things, I have decided to move back to plain old Wordpress. This decision was made for a number of reasons. First and foremost, I would never use MU as it was intended, and that is to create a blogging community. I was going to offer a few simple blogs here and there, and nothing really big, so I was using an overly complex program. Also, many of my favorite plugins would not work with MU, and these were useful. The only reason why I really started using MU in the first place was to mess with OpenID providers, and there really weren’t too many options in the MU provider, so nothing was keeping me. Now that I have switched, however, I have added a number of features back.

Well, as you have likely noticed, there have been several major changes around here.
First off, the site has been restyled. This was done because i felt the old style was getting stale and boring, as it was a bit plainto start with. I also took into account complaints about the way Ajax works, that is, no back button functionality, a long load time with no user measurable progress, and an incompatibiltiy with many security settings. So, this new site is much more classic internet. With the change comes several new features. I can use many more inline links, as they will not break the site. This will, and allready has, lead to a number of new features, each that will reveal itself over time. One of the more useful features is comment quoting. Simply select any text you want anywhere on the site, and hit the quote button on the comment form. Presto, all quoted for you.
Also, as forementioned, this site now uses Wordpress-mu instead of Wordpress. I have signups disabled for the moment, as i am waitng for version 1.5 to come out, to add functionality. When this version comes out, i will offer signups. When you sign up, you get enhanced comment rights, like editing your own, as well as a backend for other things. To a select few users, i will be granting personal blogs. These will be for anything they desire, and the only thing I will require is a link at the bottom of the page to my site. In addition to blog hosting, these few accounts will also act as OpenID accounts, allowing said users to use their blogging credentials to register on any other site.
Please give me any feedback on these changes, new design, or other elements.
