Now Blern will learn even more about you if you have a MySpace profile. If your MySpace profile is linked to the email address you use with Blern then Blern will automatically discover your MySpace blog and begin to learn about you through it.

We’ll keep adding new ways to learn about you. But if you’ve got an idea, I’d love to hear about it: Let us know!

New Email Layout

Sunday, December 23rd, 2007

Finally, an email format that is cleaner and easier to read. It’s been on the to-do list for a while now and I finally managed to squeeze some time in to get it tackled.

If you are signed up to receive your personalized recommendations via email every day, then you will certainly appreciate the new format. Not signed up for the daily email? Sign up here.

I hope you like the new format–even if you don’t I’m sure it’s better than the old!

Something look funny or wrong in the new email format? Let us know!

Blern Learns More

Blern now learns about you in even more ways. Today we added support for Blern to learn about what you like from Xanga, Blogger, and Last.fm. If you have accounts with any of these three websites, go update your Blern account now so that your recommendations get even more accurate.

Look for more websites to be supported in the near future as well. Got a site you’d like Blern to learn about you from? Let us know!
