    Cheers mate,

    A big thanks to everyone who has joined and contributed to the community as well as Andy and SoCal Legend for helping to get it started.

    It's not been explosive, but slow and steady over the last 6 months we've managed to get to a cozy community of 1,000 members and 9k posts.

    We've got some great content members can easily search and find, guides, tips and tricks and advice about electric skateboarding, ideas suggestions and brainstorming about how to improve and customise electric skateboards, as well as tons of great photos and videos of adventures from people around the globe. (Don't forget to enter this months photo competition)

    Now that we've got a decent number of people on the map and I'm able to send invites to all members nearby an event, I'm hoping the events threads will start to get better engagement and higher turnouts for all our meet ups, giving us a chance to connect and carve it up more often offline.

    I added a fair few new features last few weeks including:

    • The ability to see the best posts in a thread or forum
    • We can now send bulk invites to all members near your event
    • You can now bookmark your favourite posts to save them for later
    • Live updates in conversation / private messages to make them more chat like
    • You can search through your conversations
    • More easily find other threads from a user
    • Easily skip to the next or previous thread when in a thread using new links
    • Thread starter highlighting in threads (OP or Original Poster highlighting)
    • Giphy integration into the text editor so you can express yourselves through the subtle and sophistic artistic medium that is gifs
    • A more social media like discussion preview view to the new posts page, includes a snippet of the most recent post and a sneak peak of the latest images in a thread.
    • Favicon highlighting for posted links
    • View popular threads right now in a widget on the new posts page.
    • Added a few YouTube and blog import streams for various electric skateboard channels so we can keep up to date with the latest video and news content being shared in the industry as soon as it goes live.
    • Fixed the Chrome browser notifications

    And probably a few other things. I'll write up a separate post when I have a moment going into more depth about all the new features above.

    I'll keep at it and hopefully we'll have some more cool features over the summer.

    As always, let me know if you guys have any ideas or requests for features or have and feedback and I'll see what I can do!

    :thumbsup::punch::metal::beers::)
