Since the release of Socialtext 3.0 in September, we've been hard at work adding several exciting improvements.  I'm happy to tell you that all of our servers have now been upgrade to version 3.1.  Many of the enhancements in this release were based on your feedback.  We love working with our customers, please keep the input coming.

Below are just a few of the new features you'll find in Socialtext 3.1.  For a more complete list, along with screenshots, please this page in the Socailtext Customer Exchange.

Discover People

Profiles now display not only who someone is following, but also who is following them. This is very useful in building social networks, especially for new employees or people joining a new project or group. This also allows you to see who is following you, providing you a better understanding of who is paying attention to your work.

The My Colleagues widget which was first released in 3.0, has now been updated to make it easy for you to see both the page updates and social networking actions that your colleagues are taking.  You can even subscribe to the information via RSS feed.
