Hi everyone!

We've been busy as usual, building THE place on the web for football fans. What do you do when you've already got a great place? Make it better of course! We've enhanced a few of our existing features, all ready for the weekend.

1 ) First up we have "Throw-Ins", you've probably seen it on the site, but have never really gotten into it. What is a Throw-in anyway? Rather than just give you RSS feeds, we want YOU the football fans, to tell everyone what's worthy of looking at and what's not. If you feel you've seen or read something interesting on the web, this is your chance to share it with the rest of the OleOle community.Throw-Ins are now featured on the Home page, and the RSS feeds have been given a red card!

As you can see from the image above, we've categorized Throw-ins into four media types:

• Articles - news reports, blogs, or any other written commentary
• Photos - drawings, photographs, or any kind of image
• Videos - cool clips of football tricks, game highlights, or anything football
• Podcasts - fun commentary and banter, Internet style!

Select the type of content you want share, and click "Continue" to submit the URL. On the next page, you'll get to enter additional details on the Throw-In. In most cases, our system will automatically get the title of article! As seen below, If you're submitting a video or photo, you'll also get the chance to select a thumbnail image to represent your Throw-In.

Once you've submitted your Throw-In, it will appear on the "Recent" Throw-Ins list. There's a little score board, which shows the total number of votes the Throw-in has received. Vote up your favorite Throw-Ins and vote down the ones you dislike. Remember, you can only vote for each Throw-In once! The more votes a Throw-In has, the higher up it is on the Popular list!

You can also share interesting Throw-Ins with friends who aren't on OleOle, simply use the "Email This" feature on each Throw-In. We also encourage everyone to share their comments on a Throw-In. Hot topics always spark of great discussions!

2) Next up, we have an improvement to our video upload system. You can now opt to have our system automatically choose a thumbnail for your video, and make it LIVE on the site! No more waiting around. Just upload it, and forget it! You can of course edit the options of your upload video at any time from your My Videos page. As shown below, we have made this the default option on your file selection page ( why would you want to turn it off anyway?)

Thanks for reading, and stay tuned for the next batch of updates and improvements from the team here at OleOle!

Hi everyone!

Have you ever written a comment, then wished you could edit out a typo, or delete it entirely? Well now you can:

Comments made on profiles, blogs, and throw ins can now be edited or deleted by the writer up to one hour after posting!

As always, the owner of a profile or blog has the option of deleting any comment on their profile or blog.
