hey all -

Hope you're all doing well and getting those Halloween costumes ready!

We wanted to tell you about Latest Activity, a cool new feature that makes it easier than ever to see what's happening on DailyStrength.

Here's how it works:

1) On the DailyStrength HOME PAGE [ www.dailystrength.org ], you'll now see a live "ticker" of what's happening all over the site - new journal entries, hugs, posts, and more. It's a fascinating way to follow the action and meet new folks.

2) On MY PAGE, you'll now see a "Recent Activity" module which shows what your FRIENDS and other COMMUNITY MEMBERS are doing on the site. It's a great way to find out when someone you know has posted a journal entry, resource, message board post, or even just changed their mood.

3) Just so you know, Latest Activity only displays public events (Journals, Discussions, etc). Private events (My Messages and Friend Requests) do NOT appear.

We hope you like these new features!

In other news, we have just added a new member to DailyStrength's moderator team - HelloChrissy is your host for all things parenting and kid-related. Stop by and say hi to her!

Finally, we always like to share the stories of a few of our members:

Lollie is a wonderful mother from Texas who has been making some incredible strides in her life, both personally and as an artist. She's incredibly friendly and a great writer, and it's wonderful to see her so happy.

Check her out at:

KeaWhite2 was in a car accident and has serious back pain as a result, which has been frustratingly difficult to conquer.

Send him some love at:

As always, send us tips, thoughts, suggestions. Talk soon!

Doug & The DailyStrength Team
