November Goodies
Published

We have set a fairly ambitious release roadmap for November and
December and here is a sneak peak of 6 of the great new features
and updates coming to SocialGO.
1. Chat Room
A fantastic multi-user chat room where you can
talk with everyone in your network and even spin-off
to your own private chats!
2. API Docs
We are launching a set of documentation for the SocialGO API allowing you to make API calls to your network from any third party application. You can import members, build your own off-site widgets and even sync data with external data sources.
3. Facebook Connect
Much like our Twitter Connect widget, the Facebook Connect widget will allow your members to login directly to your network using their Facebook details.
4. Contact Importer v2
We are working hard on a new contact importer which will allow you to not only Import Webmail Contacts but will also allow you to Invite Social Networking Contacts too! Time for your networks to go viral.... :)
5. Internationalisation
We are working through your networks to complete internationalisation of all the corners of code including emails, error messages, forms and feedback. This is not only good news for our hundreds of non-English networks but also for those of you who with to personalise messages for your network.
5. More AJAX
We are reworking the way that requests and messaging work to make them more responsive. This was a heavily requested feature.
6. New In-Browser Chat
As well as our shiny new chat room, we are hoping to launch a shiny new in-browser chat experience for text-chat among your users. Get ready for your visitor times to explode. More details in the coming weeks.

November is almost gone and still no chatroom! Any updates on when we'll be seeing it? A chatroom is something that shouldve been added a long time ago.
Any news on how long until the chat room comes along? This really works well for us as it helps members build relationships and then of course keep coming back - it is really really useful in getting the network going and our current (free) chat room really is not great to use - I get constant complaints about when the new chat room is going to be available...so I would love to know if you have a date in mind. Thanks for all the amazing work you all do though - im not whinging just really looking forward to this new feature.
things i'd like to put on the map (unless they are already are): contact form ilike google docs
Nice to read that it will be finaly possible to translate the whole network. But right now, the language editor does not work. If I translate something, it does not change on the site. And what happened with my Dutch language file? If I click "Export My Language", I get an English .csv-file. Do I have to start all over again?? Same with the Homepage Widgets in Network Setup. If I change the title name and save changes, nothing changes on my homepage.
Hey Guys! WHO-IM was not pulled. It should be working fine on your networks. Cheers!
Yes this is all wonderful but when SocialGo...you've pulled the Who-Im and left nothing in it's place for now...my members are not happy at all...timing is way off. Snow x
Ooh this is exciting - really looking forward to the chat room etc... Thanks so much! Hannah :)
How long before these come online - in particular Facebook connect?
I am proud of you SocialGo! Thank you and right here you have a future customer!
All great looking improvements! Thanks to everyone at SocialGo and the different contributors for the additions.
