Have you seen your profile lately?

We’re concentrating on building a profile system that makes it easy for you to build a network of the people on lovemoney.com who are saying things you like to hear on topics that are of interest to you.

Really excited about updating you on a cool new feature and a subsequent change to profile pages.

Our own lovebunny project managed things and you can see what's new by taking a look at her profile page. (Thanks for the great feature lovebunny and team, excellent work me thinks!)

Your first thought might be one of panic - "Hey, where are all my old comments?!" - but there's no need to worry - your comments are not gone for good (More news on that soon.)

The thing is, at the moment we're concentrating on building a profile system that makes it easy for you to build a network of the people on lovemoney.com who are saying things you like to hear on topics that are of interest to you. Like a lot of our recent developments, profile pages and networks are logged-in features, so if you haven't yet registered, now's the time to do it.

Once you add someone to your network, their comments, questions, answers and other activities will show up on your profile page, so you can keep on top of the information that matters to you. No more tracking people and their comments across the site - it's now done for you in your very own network feed.

To add people to your network, just click their username or avatar. On their profile page you can learn a little more about them and add them to your network. Or you can use our people search and then add them from there:

Right now we're at the halfway point between the old profile pages and the new profile pages. We still plan to add in a few things, like counts of how many comments, recommendations, reviews and connections you have. For this, and other changes to the site, keep reading this blog!

We also plan to smooth out the behind-the-scenes process so that it's easier for you to add information about yourself (right now you need to go through settings, on the top-right of the page, then hit the 'Edit your profile' button).

If you have any feedback on the changes we have made or plan on making, please feed back below. Our goal is to make this site a super-useful tool to help you become richer, and we hope that this newest feature helps the cause.

 As usual, any feedback would be very useful and helpful for the team....
