The MyBlogLog feature of auto joining a community once you had visited it enough times is back. This is a great feature as it gives an organic growth to communities, joining people up to yours if they happen to visit it a number of times but never remember to click to the join the community.

It Half Works

I received an email notification this morning that I had auto joined two communities, Momgadget and The Wrong Advices. Sure enough, they both show up in my communities, but there is no sign of me in their communities.

I appreciate that there is a lot to be done, sorting spam, moving to Yahoo, etc. and I am glad that things are moving forward. I was particularly happy when they put a few more measures in to stop gaming MyBlogLog. I was just sad to see that a previously active feature has been announced again and doesn't work.

Come on MyBlogLog, I like the service, keep up the good work and sort this out!

In other news, I will be finishing the second part of how to style the MyBlogLog readers list soon, but everything is busy, busy, busy at the minute!

Edit: It seems to have worked now, I am now a member of both the communities I mention. I wonder if there is a time delay on appearing in your communities that you auto joined or if it was a bug that the team have quickly ironed out. Either way, I'm glad to see it's working now!
