After a couple sneak peeks and a bit of beta testing, the new site updates and additions are now live. As you may have read before, here is a quick breakdown of the changes.

Meebo

Meebo, which is located in the bottom right hand corner of your browser, is an instant messaging client that will allow you to instant message with other members in your ObesityHelp friends list. If you choose, Meebo will also allow you to connect to other instant messaging services that you may use such as MSN Messenger, Yahoo Messenger, Google Talk, Facebook and others. You also have the option to disable instant messaging if this is something you do not want to participate in. Click here for instructions on how to enable or disable Meebo.

The new look and feel also includes a much improved navigation and a redesigned homepage.

Improved Navigation

	Some of the old tabs have been removed and some new tabs have been added. This provides easier access to some of the most important and highly used features on ObesityHelp.
	The new "Smart Menus" are easier to read and navigate.
	The search bar allows you to quickly search and drill down on areas you are interested in such as forums, members, photos and more.

Redesigned Homepage

	Community Pulse highlights community stats such as total pounds lost, calories burned, activity minutes and cups of water drank .
	Before and After pictures have been reintroduced to the homepage.
	The latest blog posts from members, groups and the OH Blog are readily accessible from the new homepage.
