We have recently released My Blog 2.0.1 and Jom Comment 3.0.1 which includes pretty much of bug fixes since the initial beta release. Some of you might have been wondering why are there more bug fixes as opposed to new features. The main reason is because we are actually modifying the structure of both these components to have backward compatibilities where they both work on Joomla 1.0 and Joomla 1.5 with the same set of codes.
After making these structural changes, we should see some new features added in the next major release of My Blog and Jom Comment.

Recently, I was trying to write a blog entry here via My Blog and all of a sudden Firefox decided to CRASH itself @.@ and I can't restore the previous session for some reason. It's really a PITA when I have to re-write the blog entries :(
I think My Blog should have an auto drafting feature where it allows a blog entry to be automatically saved while you are typing or maybe when there is an idle activity of 5 seconds.
What do you think? Maybe it's just me being unlucky :(

I bet that many of you are wondering what changes are there in both these releases. While I can list some of the changes, I can't really list them all as there are too many to remember and I have a pretty bad memory. ;( Anyway, here are some of the changes in both these new versions
Jom Comment 3.0
- Multi lingual support (Quite a popular one ;] )
- New comment templates (The new template is really sweet)
- Importing utilities from MXComments (Doesn't support special encoded characters yet)

- Recaptcha support
.... and many more
My Blog 2.0
- New intuitive dashboard design (Glossy look yeaha!!)
- Meta options are now added in the dashboard

.... and many more
Enjoy yourselves with this new beta release and PLEASE DO NOT INSTALL IT ON A LIVE SITE. ;)

Recently, we have noticed that there are a couple of users who are actually unable to connect to our support desk located at http://support.azrul.com . While we are trying to rectify the issues with our upstream Internet Service Provider, it is actually quite difficult for us to locate the bottlenecks since most of us are able to access the site.
Nevertheless, if you do fall into the above, you would still be able to access our support forums at http://forum.azrul.com and any emails sent to support@azrul.com are actually retrieved by our support desk.
Anyway, if you are experiencing issues connecting to our support desk, I would like to request for your assistance to send me an email at mark@azrul.com or support@azrul.com with a "ping" report, "traceroute" report and also your IP address so that I would be able to further look into the issues.
