"Weblogs" is now just "Blogs," but that's hardly all that's changed!

The Blogs page has been completely refreshed to give it a look more in keeping with the rest of the site. In the main area, you can view the most recent blogs or sort by popularity. In the sidebar, you have the main blogging tools as well as a list of your most recent blog entries.

In addition, the default blog template has been completely changed as well. It now looks a lot more like a literary work page, and doesn't feel nearly as cramped.

Have fun browsing the new blogs page!

Welll.. a bit disorienting, but it's nice!

But I did prefer it being Weblogs, and at the end of the other tabs.

Love the new blogs section. The format is great and it feels much more like it's part of the same site. I like the fact that it's possible to see more blogs on one page than before too. :D

The shifted tab is a bit disorienting, like Lava said, because I always felt that the "literary and forums"-y stuff was at the left hand side and "storybooks and blogs"-y stuff was at the right hand side. That way there was a sort of gradual shift from "literary" to "social" -- at least that's how it worked in my mind!

I love it! Now I should maybe actually write a blog post... it's been a while.

Thanks again, Nate :)

Nate you little sneak. :P I was just about to say spoilers don't work, but that is now fixed!

Liking the new format, but boy was I confused when I clicked the last tab and it was storybooks... lol

Thanks all!

For the next update, I think I'll rename Storybooks to RPG, rename Shorts to Stories, rename Books to Novels, move the home and settings tab to the right hand side, move the green room over with the rest of the tabs, rename People to Circles, and rename Clubs to Groups. ;)
