You may notice that we are constant tinkerers when it comes to our product. We are indeed our own biggest critics, and combined with all our users' great feedback, you've got a recipe for constant improvement! We've released many new usability enhancements across the Socialbrowse site recently. Some of these updates are fairly mundane on the surface, but taken in aggregate provide a much better experience: the Socialbrowse blue is slightly darker, the page header is shorter, and the side columns are sleeker and less dominating. You'll also notice on the profile pages that the comment listings now have the link title underneath, and that the colors and spacing of these lists and the comment pages provide a better flow.
We've also expanded the link feeds to be featured more prominently on the homepage and within your profile pages. For each link that's shared, we make an attempt to pull its RSS information, including a link summary and available images. We now show this feed summary underneath the link on the popular pages, within your profile pages, and on the comment pages to give you an overview of the link's content. Over time we'll continue to improve the breadth and accuracy of these feeds to make them even more useful!

Some of the other updates are more noticeable and functional. For example, the homepage and each link's comment page now contains an icon indicating the total number of shares for the link, and a quick-share button.
