To celebrate, temporary discounts on premium, ad-free shrines are in effect. A year, long ad-free shrine is only $15. Go find a shrine and make a gift to it, or better create your own and remove the ads for a whole year while these discounts are in place.

This also opens a new era for nshrine. I have great plans for the rest of the year and hope to offer many new features. Stay tunes.

To celebrate, each nshrine member qualifies for a free “gift candle”. Gift candles allow you to remove advertising and enable privacy for the shrine of your choice for one week.

Also, nshrine has install getsatisfaction.com great feedback tool. If you have any ideas, complaints, or suggestions, got to nshrine and click on the “Feedback” tab.

This improvement was done in response to an nshrine user’s suggestion from nshrine’s new “feedback” application, provided by getsatisfaction.com.  Go now to nshrine and click on the feedback tab to provide your own suggestion.

You can still light a candle in the twitter shrine just by sending a twitter to the nshrine account. Try sending “@nshrine happy day!” in twitter now to see it work. That all you need to do. You’ll get a link back to the candle you’ve lit.

New/changed options:

• To pick a color other than yellow, add a ‘#’ followed by the mood or, now, color name. See http://nshrine.com/help/twittercandles.htmlfor list.
• To pick a shrine other than the twitter shrine, add a ‘:’ followed by the shrine name. (Note: this used to be ‘@’. This will no longer work.)
• To light a candle for another twitter user, add a ‘@’ some place after the ‘@nshrine’ at the beginning. This will link to the user AND send them a tweet about the candle.

See http://nshrine.com/help/twittercandles.html for more information and examples.

The facebook application design process has helped shaped the goals for the next version of nshrine. Your feedback can help even further.

While the facebook shrines and accounts aren’t accessible to nshrine shrines and accounts, their data are all in the same place. If the facebook application grows significantly, we will have the two operating together and any shrines and accounts you create in either will be accessible to both. Stay tuned.

You can also add candles to other shrines and use any of the available candle colors. See the Help page for more options.
