With all our hearts
At long last, we're pleased to announce a new feature. Now, in journal and community entries, there's a button you can click to show the author you liked their entry.
I like this entry.png
We aim to make feedback to authors easier and quicker, as users don’t always have time to come up with a long comment, while short ones (like “+1” or ”cool photo”) often make us feel awkward. Yet it’s so important that authors receive feedback from their readers! Pressing the heart button is simple - it's like waving your hand to a friend, saying "Hi there, I read you!", or writing "Great post, thanks". This can often be the motivation for our favorite authors to write more.

A few words about new settings and options:

We are anxious and excited to hear your opinion about this new feature:) We hope you like it, but don’t hesitate to tell us what you don’t like or inform us of any problems you come across. We truly appreciate your feedback. So click the heart! :)

New features & changes
  • The Ratings feature now has a Promo spot available for promoting your journal, community, or entry to a wider audience. You can purchase this in the LiveJournal Shop's new Promo section.

If you outbid the existing promoted space, your journal/community/entry will take the promo spot and the previous holder of it will receive a refund for the percentage of the 2 hours which they did not get to use. All content promoted must still comply with the Terms of Service, and additionally should not include adult content or advertisements. Additional details on how this works are available at http://www.livejournal.com/support/faq/350.html.

  • The Manage Userpics page has had some cosmetic changes made so that it is more consistent with other redesigned pages.

  • Embedded YouTube videos can now be viewed in fullscreen mode without leaving the page you are on.

  • The Popular Interests has been fixed so that it now shows the correct number of users for each interest.
