Yes Brian has sent out several emails in the past week. I spoke to him about them as had similar concern.

1st was trial of new memebership software--only about 20,000 members got the posting.

Second as announcement about new Nursing Jobs area.

Third was newsletter update!

Seems like our visit to ANA Convention has galvinized him into updating areas of the bb ---formerly just plans in his mind! Finally, he took time off and is on 10th Anniversay trip with wife so hasn't had time to check emails if anyone sent one.

Hope this reasures you re recent flurry of activity from allnurses and bb upgrades.
