1. Under New Management
If anyone ever tells you that running the internet's largest blog traffic exchange and community website is easy - they're lying. On the other hand, it's getting easier with every passing day and it is a LOT of fun. Before we get started, I wanted to introduce myself and the owner, Stephen.
Many of you know me already - I'm Lewis Johnston (a.k.a. orangehairedboy). You might also know me from my blog which I had to temporarily discontinue due to lack of time. I'm a programmer living in Chicago, Illinois and a geek at heart. I started working for BlogExplosion about 10 months ago, and I continue to enjoy making our site even better. You can often catch me in the Shoutbox, and I can also be heard on BE Radio.
Stephen: "My name is Stephen Sartain. I live in the UK and have been happily married for 16 years and have two children. I am the owner of a number of websites, including two of Jeff and Thomas' previous websites. BlogExplosion represents, to me, the next evolution of traffic exchanges. Instead of the webmaster doing everything, the members themselves grow and evolve the site. I am hoping you all will complete Lewis' survey. Information analyzed becomes understanding which will lead to new awareness of what you - the members - would like to see happen at BlogExplosion."
Stephen's username is StephenS so look for him around the site.

2. Yet Another Milestone
I am extremely happy to say that this Newsletter is being delivered to over 50,000 members!
Aren't we due for a party by now?
----------------------------------------------
3. Who are you...really? We Want to Know
As we make prepare to make changes to BlogExplosion, Stephen and I would like to get to know you. You make our community great!
We've prepared a short survey that we're asking all members to take which will tell us who you are, what you like and what you don't. Don't worry - it will only take 3 minutes to complete.
The information that results will enable us to build a bigger and better BlogExplosion.
So, now is the time to be heard. I promise that I will read every single response! Use this URL to take the survey:

4. You Can Never Have Enough Mystery Credits!
We know how much you love the Mystery Credits, so we added them to BE Radio. In case you haven't tuned in for a while, you can now earn Mystery Credits by requesting songs and even just for listening. So, make sure you tune in and listen for the announcement!

5. What's Next for BlogExplosion?
We've used this last week to get settled. And, now that we are settled, the fun can begin. Over the coming weeks we will be launching many new and improved features.
This week we are planning to launch a new member-supported help program called BlogExplosion Experts. I am still looking for additional volunteers to help out. If you're interested, visit this link:

And, here are a few things we're working on for future release:
* New Weekly Radio Shows on BE Radio
* New Support Ticket System
* Restructure of the Forums
* And lots more...

Thanks for being a part of the BlogExplosion community. Remember to take the survey!
