A new feature has been added to DanceWeb, allowing you to very easily bookmark almost any DanceWeb page on the most popular Community Bookmarking sites. Such sites allow you to maintain a portable bookmark file of your favourites websites and pages, and share those favourites with other web users.
The feature is a new bar in the footer of most DanceWeb pages. Just click any of the links to bookmark the current DanceWeb page. If you are not known to that particular bookmarking site, you be asked to register (first time only). With most bookmarking sites you can add a comment to any bookmark.
The currently provided sites are the most popular on the web, namely:
Delicious, Digg, reddit, Facebook and StumbleUpon
A link to the browser's local "Favorites" file is also provided (works with Internet Explorer and Firefox).

Calendars Now Show Dated Community News Items
The home page and full page calendars have now been enhanced to show entries made in the Community News section, when those entries have a date associated with them. This means that such news items now function more like conventions "Events".

DanceWeb Google Maps Substantially Enhanced
The existing Google Maps, displayed at the bottom of the page for all individual Venue and Class / Events, have now been significantly improved:
1. "Get Directions" Added
There is now a direct link to Google's own map site, that allows you very easily to get directions to the venue, and plot a route, for a journey by car, walking or even public transport (if the data is available to Google).
2. Google Map Search Box Added
There is now a search box near the bottom of the maps. You can therefore search for businesses and map features that are approximately within the bounds of the displayed map. So you could key in "Inn" or "Restaurant" etc.
3. The Map Style Conforms to Google's Own Style
The "user interface" style now automatically tracks the style used by Google on their own map site. You can also use the standard interface: e.g. you can zoom just by rolling the mouse wheel.
