I like the Activity Stream feature. It makes for an instant overview of "who of my friends is here right now". And then, I discovered inside my PROFILE yet another Activity Stream of what I, and my friends were doing. Almost like Facebook News Feed.
Really a vanity trip - so practical - so enjoyable.
This extra feature was thrown in during maintenance operations ? If so, thanks.
There may be more downtime in the future, as each feature adds to the complexity of this L A R G E set-up, but we can live with that ... as we have done before.
So, when checking in, there are two ways of engagement -either look at NEW POSTS and check for topics that are up for discussionor hit WHAT'S NEW and get the Activity Stream of who's here.
