Don't Miss These Entries

Hi folks -- I don't usually do this, but I posted two entries that you might have missed so I wanted to point them out.

Because I posted the two from the Beta version of my Journal (one because I had to, since I was using a new feature available only in beta, the other because I, um, forgot), it means you probably didn't get a New Entry Alert for them:

* The first is an update on the Journals Beta and the pending features that will come with the Journals R7 Release, including embedded video players.

* The second is a call for July 4th themed blogs and blog entries. You can show us your own blog or highlight someone else's -- blogger John also mentioned this, but I wanted to make sure no one missed their chance.

Thanks -- Joe

    Pam -- in order to view a private Journal, you have to have a Screen Name. However, it can also be an AIM Screen Name, which you can get for free at www.aim.com -- you don't even have to download anything.

    Here is an entry linked from my sidebar that may be useful: How To: Let People Without Screen Names Read Your Private Journal

    I have had three more people contact me today saying they are getting the journals not available when trying to access them.
