New Little Features

We're constantly making improvements and fixes on blogTV. Here are our newest little features we think will make you just a little bit happier:

FRIENDS ONLY! We have added one more option to your chat rooms. Now you have the option to allow only friends to talk during your show. (This should also bring more purpose to whom you add to your friends list).

APPROVE ALL! We have also made it easier for those of you who have a lot of friend requests (although I don't seem to have this problem) to simply select and approve all the friend requests at once.

MORE COUNTRIES! As our site becomes more and more diverse so has our list of countries. In an effort not to exclude anyone during the registration process, we have added some of the smaller, lesser known places for those of you who are actually from those well, small and lesser known places. Now everyone will know exactly where you come from when they visit your profile page.
