Hi Everyone! We’d like to tell you about a few new features that we recently added to InTheRooms.
The InTheRooms Newsletter, The HITCH, is a place where InTheRooms users can submit community news and events, see upcoming birthdays and anniversaries, and read about what’s going on in our online community. We here at InTheRooms invite you to submit stories to our newsletter about anything related to recovery and our community, and we will gladly include them.
In addition, we have redesigned the daily meditations section to include multiple books, from all fellowships and all walks of life. In the Daily Meditations section, you can read today’s meditation, and add sets of meditations to your profile that will rotate every day. You can also write your own daily meditation, and when we have a year’s worth we’ll add it to our book list. We are adding new books every week, so keep checking it out. If you have any suggestions for meditation books you would like to see on there, please let us know!
A lot of people on the site have been discussing new and upcoming features for InTheRooms. We want to share with you what’s coming soon.
1) Better Discussions: The ability to add pictures, video, and more to discussions, in addition to additional organization and clarity to how discussions are accessed on the site.
2) InTheRooms iPhone App: In the coming weeks, we will be releasing an application for the iPhone, distributed through iTunes and the App Store. Access all of your favorite ITR features from the palm of your hand! After this, we will be working on a mobile version of the site that will work on (mostly) all phones that can access the mobile internet.
3) Blogs: Users will be able to start their own blogs on InTheRooms, and share their journey with our online community
And further down the pipeline…
3) Instant Messaging: Talk to your friends instantly on InTheRooms, possibly groups of people and video chat as well.
4) Videos: The ability to upload videos, and possibly record videos directly to the site - for discussions, groups, profile, mail, and more.
And much much more…
Just as in our recovery we must constantly strive to better ourselves, so it is on InTheRooms. We thank you, love you, and are grateful you’re on this amazing journey with us.
Thanks,

Favorite meditations for a lot of people are far before or after today’s date…it is very time consuming to go one at a time to get back to the one you want to place on your profile…is there a way to make a link to go to specific months, and or days?? Thanks, love the site so far

First, I want to thank all of you for your hard work and loving service. Now, how hard would it be to put a feature on our pages that we could click and see all the threads, bulletins or comments someone has posted. I have so many people I admire on here and I would love to see what they’re writing, but as of now, can only come across it if they point it out to me or I come across it by accident. The other features you mentioned sound wonderful, and you all know I LOVE this site and the opportunity it provides to fellowship, grow and share with others from everywhere and from every walk of life! May you continue to achieve success in all your personal or collaborative endeavors and may you truly realize how much you are all loved for this wondrous and monumentus effort that you have undertaken! I love you guys! john

you guys are really covering all the bases. I was just talking to a friend tonight at the meeting about how big this really is. I told one person here and everyone is on and the community is doubling in size everywhere. treament centers are finding out about it. Its spreading like a wild fire and im sure you guys are well aware of this and your taking it to new level. I just want you to know what youve done to help the youth in the program. Its really helping me and i know its helping many others amoung the old timers as well. We were also talking tonight about new features and i hadnt read the blog yet and we basically said everything that your adding. This is amazing and you guys are doing an A+ job. Thanks alot mr.clean and Rt and everyone involved in this process. And going mobile you guys are reading my mind. I love it.

can we have a list of discussions we’ve participated in so we can go there with one click.. I can’t remember or find the ones I’ve participated in.. it’s really frustrating.

I am wondering if there is a forum for WCNA33. At WCNA32, 17 of us online addicts met for a luncheon and met face-to-face. I’d like to do that in Bercelona.

I am very grateful for this site which is very new to me. It is a real blessing to me and much to learn and gain. I have much to give back and have not had the place or opportunity to do so. I pray all in recovery or all who need it will find this site. I will definately share this will others.
