cUtiEshika, dr.love up there just gave the email~
Regarding the new FS Blog 2.0, I think the FS peeps are still doing their best to make the new blog customisable (dictionary please?). Coz, from cUtiEshika's post, he/she hasn't receive any email yet... I wonder when is their "next week"?
Let's just hope for the best in this revisioning and all. I too is having a hard time on customizing my blog. Some of the default layouts couldn't be customised and some aren't that convenient enough compared to the old one. Well, thats my opinion.. but I'm optimistic about the new blog.
By the time the FS peeps are all ready with the All-New Friendster Blog 2.0 (in other words there'll be no more complications, inconveniences, and faulty whatsoever) making a tutorial or something that'll help us bloggers get more acquainted with the new blog is really appreciated. I hope they (or someone) will do.

the layouts are really kewl and its easy now to put media on posts..
the prob is....? i cant embed html on the sidebar.. arghhh..
we cant put images and cbox and etc..
but im sure they are still on the process of updating...
since under widgets, the TEXT tool, it says it supports html tags..
but when i tried it, nothing happens...
so lets just wait for this to be stable.... 
@dr. love and ikyang: thnku much...
@janice:i dont blog anymoar.. maybe next year... 
i just made this update posted since im pretty sure that ill be bombarded with questions...

I believe the problem is not in friendster. i am a wordpress user for quite some time and the cbox doesn't really work in the text widget (even mp3 players).

eh? so does that mean, we couldn't put any "awesomeness" like mp3s, cbox, images and ect in the new blog? if so, thats totally bullsh1t. 
Disregard the used explicit word.

^ I'm not that sure since i just started using wordpress around November of last year. you can insert images in the text widget, but not cbox and mp3.
unless they have already updated.

^^ i thought wp.org is dfrnt from wp.com..

looks liek they have the same features...
btw.. friendster blog is powered by the latest version of wp.org..
hmn.. i receive this email..

what if i don't want the new blog?
i still wanted to use the old layout...
can i design the layout for the new version?
where should i paste the codes then?

^ If you have an existing old blog, you may still use it i guess. but you can't customize the themes of the new blog.

cUtiEshika: yeah, the cbox should be working with wp.org. idk what happened then.

is it with the differents in blog.com and blogs.com...
but if i post a new topic it appears in my new blog
does that mean i can't post new topic using my old blog?

Probably not.

@gengskie: u can't change it.... unless u will find a hosting site....
about the url, its not the S only... sum urls that have underscores are converted to dash...
but only minor changes in url in old and new..
@brentda:I wonder if you read my post completely...

If you want to use and update your old blog, use Friendster Blogs Old Home.... (any updates using this link won't appear in your new blog)... But the default link in your profile is the link to your new blog... Just bookmark the link of Friendster Blog old home... and...
You can have two blogs in friendster blog... Using the new and the old one... Updating one blog is not affecting the other blog.. You can still use your old blog while updating your new one...
For those who have their blogs just right now, you will immediately use the new blog.. If you want to use the old one, you can create a blog using Friendster Blogs Old Home....
Updating one blog is NOT affecting the other blog....

A quick assessment by Dr. Love
Things I love about the new host
1. No ads
as of the moment, I don't see any friendster ads. Hooray! And I hope for good.
2. User-friendly.
Awesome! Makes blogging easier and much more attractive for new users.
3. Pre-made layouts / Templates are decent.
They are no awesome but at the very least they give us some good choices unlike the previous host. I bet they will increase the number as the followers of the new system increase.
also, let me just add...if you are sentimental about your old blog...the link is still active and I don't think they will delete. But then again, I might be wrong.

when it comes to features and structure, worpress is cool! it's just we cant put anything we want at the sidebar. but heck, it's cool!
I also found out that we can actually import our post from blogger!
