The Latest Enhancement are Complete

We at Mizozo are constantly striving to provide the most user friendly experience to our visitors and users. While we are still in the Beta phase, we are working hard to get all the little bells and whistles working.

We have just completed a small development effort geared at providing users more access to more content. For example, on the home page we have added 2 videos so that visitors will have direct access to our most popular videos. We have also aggressively pursued our SEO tactics, hoping to drastically increase our traffic.

Now that we have opened registration, our goal is to involve more and more people in the Mizozo Revolution. We want to see people commenting more, posting more stories and creating more Mizozos.

Unfortunately, we have decided to likewise place advertising on the site to help cushion some of the expenses involved in developing an application of this magnitude. We have tried to keep the advertising unobtrusive, but if people feel that it is ruining the aesthetic quality of the site, we will work hard at repositioning or possibly removing the advertisements from that particular location.

We have recently setup Mizozo Labs, currently hosted on mizozo.net. This is not to be used for publishing content, but for those that are curious what we are working on next, we invite you to check out the Labs and provide suggestions for improvement.

We hope you like what you see at Mizozo. Lets keep the articles coming, the comments flowing, and the arguments heated. Without you, Mizozo is a meaningless effort.

Registration Now Open

After a short pause in development, we have started once more in enhancing Mizozo. We have done a small number of minor enhancements around the site such as the way our Photo of the Day works, Quote of the Day, and have done some minor tweaks throughout.

Two things that are immediately apparent, however, i the fact that Registration has now been opened to the public, and we have added a Share feature on all of our story pages. So, invite your friends and contribute to the next generation news source.

We are also working hard on SEO, so we are looking forward to many more visitors soon. There are many more enhancements coming in the next few weeks, so stay tuned.

Join the revolution ... Mizozo!

Advanced Search Feature is Ready

Mizozo Beta is almost fully complete. With only a few more minor enhancements left, we feel very good with what we have done thus far.

The latest enhancement is the Advanced Search feature. Giving the user a few more options when searching, we hope that users will be able to find exactly what they want substantially faster. We have likewise changed the search teasers a little bit, allowing us to fit more search results on a single page with less scrolling.

Our next task ... Photo of the Day!

Mizozo's New WYSIWYG Editor and More!

After a long and grueling process, we have finally completed the WYSIWYG editor integration. While there may be some issues here and there, we are working our best to rid the application of them as quickly as possible. The new editor is substantially more powerful with many new features. If anyone experiences any problems, or would like any new features added, please let us know and we will do our best.

The other major change this week is the new and improved Gallery. While it isn't substantially different on the front end, it is very different on the back end. The Full Story Views now show the gallery pictures on the Right Hand column in bigger format to give viewers a better feel for the pictures. Likewise, all Publishers can add photos to any story regardless of relation. We are hoping there will not be abuse of this feature.

As usual, we have also fixed numerous small issues and made many small changes to the system. We are getting close to finalizing Beta and settling on a fixed version of the product. We greatly appreciate our user support thus far and are looking forward to new requirements from them.
