QJ.NET New Features: Jump out of your Browser!

Heads up, QJ readers! We’ve rolled out a couple new features today that should thrill and delight many of you… okay, so maybe that’s pushing it a bit, but they’re still cool! We know there’s a few of you who just can’t get enough of QJ.NET and visit us several times a day just waiting for new updates. Well now the updates are coming to you!

PSP Friendly Version!

The first thing on the list is something that has been LONG overdue and one of the features you folks have been asking for the most. How can a site that features the PSP and Mobile gadgets not have a version that supports these devices? How indeed! So we’re thrilled to (finally) announce that we have a PSP friendly version of the site available! This “56k Friendly” version of the site should display just fine on your PSP, PDA, or other mobile device. It’s been scaled down so it loads quickly, and even has the option of turning on/off the images.

You can access the mobile version of the site several ways! In the “QJ Blog Network” panel, just click on “PDA” next to the blog you want to view and that’s it! There is also a “PDA Version” link in the Navigation panel. And since entering URL’s into the PSP Browser isn’t always the easiest thing to do, we’ve taken that into account. All you have to do is add “/pda” to the end of the sub-domain of your favorite blog – so if you want to visit PSP Updates, the URL would be: pspupdates.qj.net/pda – it’s that simple!

And guess what – we haven’t forgotten about the Forums either, so you can take the community with you wherever you go! At the bottom left hand corner of the forums pages, you’ll find a Style drop down menu – just select “WAP Beta” or “VB Lite” and you should have no trouble viewing the forums on the go, no matter what device you’re using! Both of these settings are a little different, so see which works best for you. You can also change this setting in your User Control Panel Options.

Email This!

If you’re reading this, you already know about QJ, but your friends might not. At the bottom of each article, you’ll find an “Email This” link – if you want to share a story with a friend, co-worker, or family member just click the link and fill out the form. The recipient will receive a version of the article via email – complete with images and links, the whole caboodle!

QJ.NET Newsletter

So your friends are getting QJ in their inbox, but what about you? Don’t worry, you’re not left out either! QJ.NET can now send out email newsletters to let you know when a new article has been posted. How’s it work? Well first, you have to be Registered here on the front page, and then you’ll find the Newsletter Settings link at the top of the far right sidebar. From there, you can select whether you want a daily update of what’s been posted on our blogs, or you can choose to be notified every time there’s a new update. Now you’ll never be out of the loop!

Shhhhhhh… it’s a secret…

My, my, my, QJ.NET has changed a lot this year, but our biggest changes are right around the corner! In a week or two, we should be tackling an aspect of the site that has been a source of complaints and grief for far too long. Most of you probably know what we’re talking about. But even better than that, there’s a ground breaking part of QJ.NET that we’ve been working on for quite a while now. And guess what? It’s right under your noses and ready for wear – but you’ll have to find it first! If you’re not the sleuthing type, you’ll have to wait until the official announcement to find out what’s up. Both of these projects are part of our ultimate goal to give our readers more control and influence over what happens here at QJ! After all, in the grand scheme of things, this is your site – and we need your help to make it the best it can be!

As always, we’re counting on your feedback on these new features to make them as useful and enjoyable as possible. There’s bound to be some kinks and problems, so let us know what you find and what you want!
