First, we’ve added sub-tabs when browsing all the topics, so you can see questions sorted by date, activity, and whether or not they’ve had any answers (poor little orphan questions).

We’ve updated YUI, so IE8 should work now without having to switch into compatibility mode.
We’ve also fixed a long nagging bug where the @link dropdown menu wouldn’t work at the start of your second paragraph.

As part of a little long-term project, we’ve wrapped up porting our custom Textile engine from python to javascript.

We’ve added a new setting so you can control who sees your list of answers on your profile.

Additionally, we’re now notifying you […]
