I've just uploaded a small update to the site that allows you to create new pages that are simply links to other urls. The main purpose for this is so that you can add links to your main navigation menu that don't have to go to a page on your website, they can link to any url you want. If you want to see an example of what I'm talking about you can take a look at the links in the main navigation of this blog. You'll see that these links actually take you back to the main SnapPages website.
To create one of these you simply create a new page in the Web Pages app and it will ask you if you want to create a standard page or a link page. When you select "link page" you just need to add a title and the url that you want the link to go to and that's it. Simple but effective.

We're based out of Austin, Texas, so naturally we will be at SXSW this year. Tomorrow we will have a booth setup in the exhibitors area and we would love for our users to stop by, grab a t-shirt, and chat with us. Our booth number is 911 so that should be easy to remember. Also if you want any insider tips on where to eat around town we can help with that too.

I've just updated the site with a new template called Desktop. I'm hoping to add even more templates in the coming weeks so stay tuned for more.

As some of you noticed we had some performance issues over the weekend and things were in general going pretty slow. We've been trying to track down the issue ever since then and I'm happy to report we've found the problem and fixed it so it shouldn't happen again.
If you want to know what caused this, basically we found that someone had two linked feeds in their blog that were linking to each other and causing it to go into an infinite loop. This bogged our system down and was causing the speed reductions. We've fixed it so this can't happen again. Thanks again for your patience as we worked through this issue and we appreciate all of you who gave us feedback on this issue.

In addition to all the new improvements are are already making, we are planning on rolling out several smaller updates with new features. Today we just updated the site with one of these new features. Everyone wants more integration with existing social networks so that's one of the things we are working on.You'll notice on this blog that at the top next to the comment count we have a "tweet" button and a "share" button for facebook. These, in addition to the new AddThis button that you see at the bottom of this post, are new plug-ins for the blog. You can enable these on your blog in the settings under the new "Plug-ins" tab. It's as simple as that. Just enable the plugin and it will automatically show up on your blog.
We've also added a new "AddThis" block that you can add to any web page and it will add the same AddThis button that you see on this blog to any page on your site. You can even set what URL you want shared in case it's not the same as the page the button is on. You can find this block in the "widgets" section of your web blocks in the page editor.
