We continue to work on improving the site, adding features, and responding to your feedback. You'll notice a new button bar on all Spots. This gives you quick navigation to other parts of the site from any Spot, and, if you are logged in, a quick way to add the person whose spot you're visiting to your friends list. Additionally, you can subscribe to each Spot's RSS feed through the "Subscribe to this Page" command in browsers that support it, such as Mozilla Firefox.
