A Like feature has now been added to Write Out Loud.

Just hit the Like button when viewing a poem in the Blogs section to tell the user you like it - but please carry on leaving comments too if you have more to say. You can Like photos posted too. You will need to be logged into the site to see the button and you won't see it on poems you posted yourself.

If one of your poems receives a like, you will receive a notification through the internal notification system - another new feature. Just keep an eye on the Inbox link at the top of the screen after logging in. The count next to it now includes internal notifications automatically generated by the site as well as messages from other users. This allows us to notify you of some events on the site without sending you too many emails - something which some users prefer.

Please give any feedback on either of these new features here. Also, anything else about how the site works that you think is great or find annoying. We are always interested to hear your views.

Paul,

Write Out Loud Technical Director
