@Gianna Borgnine: I agree. The social media side should be cool to see in the future. Thanks for the comment! 🙂

The Search function takes *more* clicks to navigate through to a SLurl than it did before. I spend a whole lot of time in Search for my job. Linden Lab basically just increased the time it takes me to complete my task, effectively reducing my hourly wage. Thanks guys.
On the up side, it looks pretty.
