Here’s a couple little updates that may be irrelevant to your interests!

Facebook Connect is back with a vengeance.
It was down for a short while but is now both cleaner and easier to use. Wanna know how? WELL! I’m glad you asked. Since it’s only used for leaving comments, you’ll only see it on my blog posts.

It can be found at the top of the sidebar (just underneath the search bar) by hitting ‘Log In’

or at the bottom of a post, simply by clicking ‘Login with Facebook’

If you’re not logging in with Facebook, just click ‘Log In’ and you’ll have another option. It also remembers you when you come back, which is my favourite part.

‘Edit Profile’? What is that? AH! I’m glad you asked. Well, when you first log in with Facebook, it grabs some of your information like your name, to display it on the comments. Your ‘Profile’ is where you can change that if you want. Just take a look next time you leave a comment!

What else is new?

Sharing.
At the bottom of each blog post, just above the comment login, you’ll notice a bar containing some links for sharing. I’m glad to say a few people have already been doing this!

Both Facebook and Google Plus allow you to add a message before you share the link:

Sharing with Twitter allows you to customise the tweet before you send it in a separate window. The orange box to the right, ‘Share’, also allows you to send the post in Email, Reddit, Digg or over 300 other sharing sites (I had no idea that many existed!).

If you want to know anything more about logging in with Facebook, how to leave a comment or edit your profile, just shoot me an email.
