Upcoming Changes to Intent!

Fellow Intenters,

I am excited to tell you about upcoming changes to intent – which you will begin seeing later today and over the next few weeks.  

Our community here is passionate, giving, heartfelt and supportive of one another.  Over the last few years we have cultivated great content from experts and provided a platform for a community dedicated to improving their own lives and the lives of others.

But what really drives our community are the intents that each of you post, and then generally support, offer advice or share through twintents and other social media.  Its being both confident, funny, inspirational, bold and often vulnerable in sharing your personal, social, global and spiritual aspirations with the universe that has made Intent truly special and unique.

So, we are going to let the intents take center stage.  

The new home page will have an intent roll, and a featured intent with related content.  It will be simpler, and has a slight shift in design.

You will see over the coming weeks new profile pages to more easily find and follow friends and specific content.  

Also, the site will shift to more content specifically related to intents.  (And in a few months, groups are coming – having groups around shared intents, I hope, will help us support and inspire each other even more!)

All of our amazing content from our experts will still be there, but now featured on the BLOG headline on the top bar and hopefully packaged better throughout the site for you to find more easily.

We have a very small team at Intent, who seem to do such an incredible amount of work and deal with daily hurdles with very little resources.  I would like to thank each one them – Alex, Marissa, Yumi and our engineers at Halosys in India – for their hard work.

As always, we look forward to your feedback.  I know, being so attached to Intent myself, that change is often difficult, but I am truly excited as I believe this shift is going to the next step in our evolution.

Love Mallika

    Indeed, Mallika; my grateful thanks to all of you too. Margaret Mead's famous quote is especially true of the Intent team.

    Dear Malika, Alex, Marissa, Yumi and engineers in India,

    I would like to add my thanks and praise for all your hard work, both visible to us and behind the scenes, to make this experience of connecting with likeminded souls on this planet such a pleasure. You who had the vision, for your faith in humanity to respond, and you who bring that vision into form, for your creativity and effort. When innovation gives voice to the heart as it does here, life becomes a real blessing.

    Looking forward to v.next.

    With great appreciation,

    Katherine

    Thank you to the intent team for your amazing work and dedication to making this site what it is today. I just have one complaint and thats about the pornography blogs showing up all the time…surely there must be a way to block this. Hope you can sort this out…love and support to all of you.

    Could you please send us link regarding the blogs you mention. I did not know about this. Please email us at editor@intent.com.

  19. beachgirl May 3, 2010 at 5:53 pm #

    mallika…i too have noticed much porno recently and sending an email to editor at intent.com failed. for examples, see the current `latest` intent link pages 5 onwards and you will see the sites. thank you all for hard work, beachgirl

  20. mallika.chopra May 4, 2010 at 8:26 am #

    Sati and Beachgirl, Oh my gosh, I was horrified to see those posts. Thank you for letting me know. I have alerted our tech team and spent an hour yesterday erasing the messages just from yesterday. So disheartening that that happens and PLEASE do let us know. (I will also check on the email address!!)

    This is a smart blog. I mean it. You have so much knowledge about this issue,

    and so much passion. You also know how to make people rally behind it, obviously

    from the responses. Youve got a design here thats not too flashy, but makes a statement

    as big as what youre saying. Great job, indeedpower socket|glue gun
