Well this is my first blog here in the ALRA community, I have spent the past couple of days updating the community page to add more features and hopefully an easier way to find the information and discussion that you require.

Personal notifications are now simpler, and wherever you go on the ALRA website you will be able to be notified of friends requests, messages, comments etc - which I hope will make things a little easier.

The only item that will stay rigid is the chat bar at the bottom of the page.  I know that this item, isn't the greatest chat function in the world, however I think until the website requires a more stable version (i.e when there are large number of people online using it) I will look at it again.

It really has been lovely to see so many newbies to the site, and wonderful to see that this site has maybe allowed a few of you to get to know one another before you actually arrive at ALRA - it really heartening to me to see this happen.

So, what you are reading is the brand new feature for the ALRA Community.  Each one of you has the option of creating a blog, which will sit in your profile.  I hope you use it to share your journey before, while you are with us and once you leave ALRA...

If you have any queries, please do not hesitate in getting in touch....

Now to get back to developing ALRA:TV ;)
