Update on Betterhumans X: Changes starting soon

I'm pleased to announce that things have been moving rapidly with the next version of Betterhumans.com. We now have several positions filled and our volunteers are working behind the scenes on planning and development.

I am also pleased to announce the addition of several prominent writers to our list of Featured Bloggers. These include:

Michael Anissimov
Ralph Cerchione
Anne Corwin
George Dvorsky
James Hughes
Peter Passaro
Reason
Russell Blackford
Brian Wang

Some of our Featured Bloggers have already started posting to the site. Others will begin when we transition to our new format.

And on that note, I wanted to announce some intermediate steps towards the next version of the site. Over the next week, and hopefully the next few days, we will be:

Adding a Featured Blogs section to the site.
Adding a Featured Blogs feed to the home page.
Reorganizing the forums along these lines:

Improve the world

Activism
Technology
Ideology

Improve yourself

Mind
Body
Other

Make connections

General discussion
Introductions

Improve the site

Staff
Support

You will notice these and other changes as we move towards the next version of the site, which will involve a total overhaul. As a step towards the new site, we need to change the architecture, which is why we're adding in some new sections and reorganizing the forums.

Please send any feedback to me, Parish or any of our other staff!
