Well it took a while but I have things pretty much set up. The site now has a central community page that yo can use to view recent forum posts, blogs or articles. We now have a whole slew of community features available. Such as:

• Upload your picture.
• Private messaging
• Manage your friends in the community
• Leave messages on other members "Wall"
• View a members story of their involvement in the community.
• Create or join community groups.
• Create or join events on the community event calendar.
• We also now have a fully functional job board for those who are looking for work or members that are looking to fill a position.

I'm interested in any feedback on the changes, so don't be shy.
It's been a while since I have published an article on the site and I have been trying to think of what my next topic should be. I have been thinking of a follow up to the Group columns in an ASP.Net Gridview . I was thinking about expanding this to extend the Gridview control to make it easier to group the columns. Or I might talk about reflection and some cool ways to use it to dynamically load features in an application. Stay tuned and see what I decide to do next.
