OK, so it's not Christmas, but our forum software has been updated to include a bundle of new features for our members:

Status Updates
Though status updates are nothing new, you will now be able to comment on other members' status updates. In addition, a log of your status updates, the comments they have received and the comments you have left on other members' status updates can all be viewed on your profile page.
My Content
In your personal dropdown menu at the top-right of the site, there is now an option called "My Content" that will compile a list of every topic you have taken part in throughout the forum over the past year.
Link Sharing
You can now easily share interested threads with social networking platforms such as Twitter, Facebook, Digg, Buzz, Del.icio.us, Reddit and StumbleUpon from a row of buttons conveniently located at the bottom of each thread.
You can also e-mail threads, view a printer-friendly version, and save them to your computer.
Topic Preview
You can now preview the first few lines of a topic (as well as the most recent post) without loading the entire topic. Simply hover over any topic that interests you and a button will appear to the right. Look carefully!
There are some other minor changes as well, but those above tend to be the more notable ones.
As with any upgrade, however, there's always a chance for bugs and errors. If you encounter any, you can let us know in this thread or in our Site, Feedback, Assistance section.
Have fun!
