What’s new on eHow?

Friday, November 21st, 2008

Every once in awhile the eHow team will sneak in a small change here or there, but this is one upgrade that won’t go unnoticed.  As soon as you login to your profile, you’ll immediately  note that it’s changed –and for the better!  So, now you’re probably wondering, what else is new on the site?  Why keep guessing, when we can just tell you?  Drum roll please… Here’s the official list of NEW things that have been released on eHow:

  • Activity feed on your profile. This is where you can see what your friends have been up to on eHow.  Many members have been requesting this, and we’ve answered your call. Now you should be able to see when your friends have created new eHow articles.
  • Probably the most talked about feature on the site will be “Groups.”  Now, it’s easy to build your very own micro community on eHow — or you can always join an existing Group that someone else has created.   Groups are communal spots where you can go and connect with other individuals who share your interests.  You can have discussions and share photos and videos with other like-minded folks.  It’s fun and easy — check it out
Our team put together this video to celebrate the launch of the new eHow. Watch for a tour of new features from our product guru Wemmick!
