Good Day Network Owners,
As you may or may not know, SocialGO HQ pushes a release to the platform once a week, (usually on a Wednesday) which contains between 20-30 different changes that have been made and have gone through testing. Many of these are minor tweaks and changes and some are the introduction of entirely new features like Member Billing 2.0 or the Profile Designer.
With this in mind then, here are a few things coming out today.
Coming Today we are introducing email verification on signup to make sure that your new members verify their email addresses on signup. This will improve the delivery rate of your mass-messages and will also ensure that those members receive emails on new requests and messages sent to them. We are also rolling out updated mail servers to further white-label the platform. Looking at mail headers will now no longer say alerts@socialgo.com but will instead come from network-notify.com.
We are also releasing a fix to CSV data export so you can easily get a copy of your members and manipulate it in programs such as Excel.
In the next 2-4 weeks ....
Facebook Connect
We are in the final stages of testing the Facebook Connect widget which will allow people signup to your network with FB details as well as incorporate a Share function allowing people to share content on their networks with their Facebook Feed.
New Contact Importer
We are working on a new Contact Importer which will allow people to invite contacts using all webmail programs but also many popular social services as well. We will also be introducing the option to automatically redirect people to invite their contacts on signup to increase virality of your network if you so wish.
Chat Room Widget
We have a multi-user chat room widget in production which we are working on and plan to have this ready within the next 2-3 weeks.
Zemanta Widget
If you have the Zemanta toolbar in your Firefox browser you will know how great it is for suggesting content to place into your blogs. You will soon be able to load this directly into your network using the Zemanta Widget for SocialGO coming soon.
Improved API Documentation
We will shortly be launching a WIKI which contains examples and use cases for building with the SocialGO API. If you have basic programming skills you will find everything you need to get, update and create a range of different items on your social network. It will also contain information on developing your own widgets and themes for SocialGO networks.
The above list is just some of the things we are planning to launch in the next 4 weeks. As details become clear beyond that, I will be updating the SocialGO Owners' blog so please do keep an eye on it or even subscribe using the link at the top right of the http://owners.socialgo.com/
We have several widget developers and theme developers that want to hear from you. Why not start an Idea? on GetSatisfaction.com/socialgo to see what other network owners' think of your concept.

Do you have an idea what the price points will be for facebook connect and new chat room feature?

Do we have a go live date for Fbook connect?
Chat room widget is from SocialGo or any other developer?? Is it free or will charged? Email verification is still the same-old one, anyone can easily sign up with fake email Id.. Every one want E-mail Verification process must be so secure that no one can sign in without verify his/her email id.-- This thing we want.
