Enhancing the experience of the live blogTV platform is now available with a set of new features and improvements. BlogTV's new personal profile pages enable users to style their own
backgrounds, add photos, customize their own show banner and embed widgets. This means that our growing community of musicians, for example, can package up their live performances,
recorded shows, personal style and display and sell their own music via mp3 widgets, all in one place!
We have also granted our content creators more tools to broaden their audience outside the blogTV platform. The new live player is double the size and will deliver a new experience for
broadcasters and viewers. These new features will give our users the creativity and tools to brand their show as well as put out a fresh and personalized face to their fellow blogTV
buddies.
