I wanted to let you know that the "My favorites" link has not been activated yet. It would be available after a few days.
Thank you.

Hi everybody,

As promised before, after lot of testing, we are rolling out some new features which should help networking with other members easily. One of the prime concerns for me in this process has been protecting user information and maintaining privacy.

St.Patrick's day is coming up on March 17th. Our kids and their friends not only want to wear green, but also want to eat green! My first thought about green colored food was spinach! But, guess what they came up with?

They want "yummy" food, or some dessert items in green. One of them has suggested making green colored Kesari! You think they'll share their treasure with me if I make them green Kesari?

Time will tell.

Hi everybody,

ikolam is slowly starting to turn into a social networking site! Some of our members have expressed their interest in updating their profiles with additional information, that would facilitate in communicating with friends and extended family.

We'll have the updated profile page ready in the site by Sunday (March 15), so please feel free to update your profile. If you've any questions, feel free to email me.
Thank you,
-Lata

Some of our members were interested in mailing their rangoli submissions to ikolam. Here is the address:

Wish you all a happy HOLI!!

Some of our members had reached their space limit while uploading their rangolis to the site. As of now, everyone should have enough space for further uploading, and we don't anticipate any problems (We will soon be allotting more uploading capacity to the site, in general). But, just in case you do encounter any kind of uploading problems, please email me your images, and I'll do the needful.
Thank you.

We are introducing a new bookmarking feature in iKolam, which allows the members to bookmark the item of interest (be it a kolam or a story or a blog entry) with the most popular bookmarking sites like digg, deli.cio.us, stumbleupon etc. If you are registered with one of these sites already, then you could easily start collecting most interesting kolams and posts from iKolam.

Below every node, you will find small thumb-nail images [ ], which when clicked will take you to the appropriate site.
