We're constantly trying to improve the web site (slowly but surely). Today we're examining our blog. Do you read our blog? Do you find it useful? Would you like different content? Inquiring minds want to know!

    I read it on occasion to see if I missed anything new. I prefer a homepage that has news on the main page. So I can see everything that has happened recently. Just my preference though =)

    I read it on occasion too... but its not that interesting to read in the forum that a new version is available after reading it on twitter after reading it in your blog, while i am already informed after starting gamesalad ;) ...
    i would prefer more news and less places to get the informations...

    If I ever get the time, I'm hoping to make a blog section of the forums that links the two... so forum post crosspost into the blog, and vice versa.

    Yep - if the blog was integrated better into the forum/general site, then I would know where it is and when it's been updated.

    While I'm here, I think it'd be a bit friendlier to be able to go back to the main site or the wiki from the forum. A link at the top will do ;)

    Cheers,

    I think the blog is ok, the updates are infrequent though. If you're having a blog, ensure there is new and interesting information each day. Sporadic updates doesn't make a great blog sadly. Well that's my cooking tip.

    Or set a day aside for updates.

    Star Wars Galaxies has a regular Friday update - People expect there to be an update on that day, so visit the site.

    Might work?

    Suggestion - show the latest blog post titles within GameSalad when it is loading with the ability to click through.

    Maybe the blog can show what you gs devs usually do on a random day. Do you guys prank each other or have ideas about life you would like to share?

    Oh yeah I see it now, right between 'Games' and 'Forums'.

    It would be better if it was updated more often. It's that whole communication between company and clients thing. I also liked what you guys did for a bit on new GS games you were playing. It's reassuring to know you are connecting with us in some way.

    I think there should be a tab at the top of the website that is for the blog. Otherwise there is no direct way to get to it. Very annoying.

    While I'm on the subject, it would be nice if the navigation bar locked onto the top of your screen when you scroll down the website. Not necessary, but it would be nice.

    The link is at the bottom of every single page. :)
