Buzznet Community Update: Week of April 6, 2009As promised, I'm starting a new blog feature every Monday that wraps up what's going on around Buzznet, both for the community and the site itself. This week, we've got a new journal tool to discuss, the winner of the illustrious Skittles contest to show off, Bamboozle madness to gush over, and more fun with the Buzznet Twitter account. Come on in! So, first things first: We have finally updated the journal editor tool sitewide!
We've given you more control over how your written words appear in your journal. You can know customize the font, font size, paragraph formatting, and embed directly without having to switch to HTML mode. Awesome! If you have any questions, feel free to ask away in the comments. After many buzzes were handed out by the Buzznet community, we've finally announced the winner of the Skittles Get Down To The Core video contest. The wonderful band Colin Healy and The Jetskis won the $5,000 Grand Prize; 10 other Buzznet members all won Flip video cameras. Head on over to the Skittles group to congratulate the winners and check out any videos you may have missed the first time around.
The Buzznet staff and community came out in full force to this year's Bamboozle Left festival. Our own wonderful SwingTheFocus11 (Emily) was on-hand to photograph a ton of bands and hang out with Ashlee Simpson, while Bree and Karen were soaking up sun, taking photos, recording Cobra Starship's new song, "Pete Wentz Is The Only Reason We're Famous (Shake It Up)," and interviewing All Time Low with questions from the community. Make sure to visit the Bamboozle Left group to see all the photos, videos, and commentary. Buzznet Original mod/admin Seb has pointed out a wonderful feature that RhiannaResolution has been doing every week. Rhianna finds Cool Stuff On Buzznet and shares them with her friends. Join in and give some love this week. Finally, make sure you're following the official Buzznet Twitter account. Not only will you get updates about fascinating new content on the site and Buzznet exclusives, but we're known to be pretty silly at times. Sometimes we'll have @reply challenges. We're always willing to offer help or fix any problems with the site too! So make sure to follow us and join in on the fun. That's it for this week. What's going on with you?

Congrats to all the winners and such.
There's a lot going on.
Did it use to have one? I used to drop my journals into Word to spell check them.
