Hi All,

Just to let you know, we continue to fix bugs on Minti (eg: reported area now clears after it has received enough votes).

Keep letting us know about any bugs that you find. Best place to let us know is here.

Thanks

Hi Everyone,

There has been some discussion about this over the past few days, and so I just want to clarify it here on my blog... most of the content on Minti is public, and can be viewed by anyone on the Internet.

We DO provide private areas for you.. ie: your lounge is private just to you and your Minti friends, and you can also set up a private group and only invite your friends to it.

Here is an excerpt from our Privacy Policy (linked at the bottom of every page, plus when registering you click that you have read and agree to the Privacy Policy)...

Hi Minti'ers,

I hope the ad on the top of each page isnt bothering you much.
To continue to make this site free to need to display ads.
We try to be as discreet as possible.

Hi Minti'ers :)

Just to let you know, if you are level 5 (ie: silver shield with 2 stripes) or higher, you can now add advice links on other members advice.

It is important to link articles to other similar articles, so that readers can find more relevant content.

Please help us out with this

Also - please let other level 5 members know

Cheers
Clay

So I finally got round to creating a blog for Vibe Capital today.
Here it is. Specific Vibe Capital news will be posted there (obviously i hear you say ).

Anyone that blogs knows how hard it is to come up with interesting blog posts every day.

Here is a great comic from blaugh...

 

potty training - what a star! he is a professional potty trainer already. I am no longer stressed... he tells us when he wants to go to the potty

sleeping - not much success here. i think we are going to put a bed in our room for a little while.

Hi All,

Just a quick update to let you all know...

• potty training - we are having some success. especially doing pee pee on the potty
• sleeping - well lets just say, it's not ideal but at least we are all getting some sleep. we have set up a fold up bed next to Codi's in his room and we alternate each night. I think tonight is my turn to sleep in Codi's room! The "plan" is to... once he stars sleeping all the way through without waking to see if we are there we will no longer need to sleep in his room. That's the plan anyway... i guess only time will tell.
