What's new in Socialtext 1.1

Weblogs. The weblog portion of the system has been improved for greater ease of use. The "weblogs" selection on the menu bar now takes you directly to the most recent blog that you had been viewing. You can select a weblog to view from a dropdown menu of available weblogs. When you're in the weblog section, you can now post directly to a weblog by picking the weblog from a drop-down menu, and selecting "Post to weblog".

E-mail in attachments. Email sent to a workspace that has attachments in it will have the attachments saved on the appropriate page.
