This week on NuTang, we had 15 new sign-ups. Congrats to the newly elected WoM(aN)s: JMC and monkeymeister. NuGallery has been re-launched! Baby animals pics appear on NuTang. Baby porcupines. Baby elephants. Who wants $20? InsaneFishy grows a cube.

Always remember: This is NuTang. We can do anything here.

After several weeks in the works, the new NuGallery (beta version) has been released. The baboons have been busy copying over the photos from Flickr to the Island. (However, some photos may have been lost in the ocean during the transport.)

In the coming weeks, more and more features will be rolled out for the NuGallery as we continue to fix the kinks in the system. Here are some things to look forward to:
* photo tagging
* photo plugging (NuStore)
* photo commenting
* flickr photos import tool

This week on NuTang, we had 25 new sign-ups (many of whom haven't published their first blog post yet).

Congrats to razzly for domination!



(Will the SnS migration continue?) The Celebrity Lookalike Contest is back. Mercury-System cranks out more features. Dirty corporate politics at NextStudent are uncovered. Is dave married?

Always remember: NuTang, where skies are blue and dreams come true. Don't worry, ikimashokie, your dream's only a few (thousand) clicks away.

You can now set the number of blog entries per page on your weblog. To administer this, go to NuTROL Account Info. Near the bottom, you will see the option to do this. The default number of blog entries per page is 6.

Thanks to Katrina, conjurer of deadly hurricanes, for this wonderful idea.

Earlier this week, beta versions of the Recommendation and PoPo systems were launched.

Recommendation System
The purpose of this system is to give members a way to commend their fellow NuTang bloggers for their interesting blog entries. (Thanks to hmdaswani for this great idea!) To give a blog entry a recommendation, merely click the "recommend!" link at the bottom of the entry.



Once you do, you're recommendation will be logged and duly noted. (Yes, you get a link back to your site!)



The NuMod
You have discovered this already, but we have a new NuMod! You can publish modules that display:
* a list of the latest entries that you've recommended
* a list of your entries that have received the most recommendations



Enter the ...

PoPo System
Go to the PoPo (Popular Posts) page by click "PoPo" on the top navigation menu. This page aggregrates ALL recommendations received, and displays the most recommended entries!



So Go Start Recommending!
Here are two PPS Opportunities to give you more of an incentive:
* Opportunity Uno
* Opportunity Dos

Hello, hello. Here are some updates.

• Thanks to ikimashokie's suggestion, now all members will know when someone saves them as a friend. You will receive a note about it in your inbox.
  
• A "hot topics" section is adde to the bottom of every page in the forums. Now, there's no need to check each forum and thread to see what's been responded to.
  
• And, guess what? We have a new NuStore item. Buy your own forum!
  

And that's all she wrote.
