Ever try to block someone from your footprints?  It was quite the process!  You first saw them in your footprints, then you had to memorize their username, then find the block users page, then input their name, then block!  In that same time you could’ve saved the world, baked a pie, and climbed mount everest.

But now, it’s easier to do.  Thanks to Dave, we added direct block links for usernames and even an option to turn off your RSS from your footprints page!

We’ll also be adding some other upgrades to footprints soon!  Like simplified links, adding photos, videos, and audio to footprints, and much much more.  So stay tuned and keep on trackin’ them footprints!

Today, we’re unleashing Private Messaging 2.4678!  Yup, it’s that big of a change, we decided to add an arbitrary number to the version.   

We were really surprised by how many people wanted to delete sent messages!  But a lot of you are really into scrubbing inboxes and sent messages, so, we definitely wanted to add that and some other tweaks like:

• Threading – messages sent back and forth are neatly organized into one message
• Replied icon to show if you responded to a message or not
• Compose a message
• Send a message to all your friends or subscribers
• and a couple other tweaks…

We hadn’t planned on upgrading Messages for a while (it’s only been a month since we launched it!), but your feedback was so cool that Vikas and I wanted to get these tweaks in right away.

So check it out – keep messaging away and tell us what you think of the new version!
