G'Day....

Since I started my GameDev Blog I have had a few entries "featured". I assume that means it is posted in some more visible place or something.. but I can not seem to work out where. As far as I can tell the only thing that happens is that the entry gets a star on it.

TL;DR : What exactly dose "GameDev.net has featured your Blog entry" mean?

Thanks!

A few things happen.

1. You are notified that it's been featured.
2. A star is put on the entry.
3. It shows up in any of the featured blog feeds around the site.
4. It is listed in that week's newsletter.
5. You receive additional Pixels (activity points) on top of the Pixels you received for posting the blog entry.

More will happen when we get the new platform (which I'll talk more about soon and is coming soon), including more prominence for the blog entry - so more members will see it - as well as get additional exposure through the social channels. I'll have more on that soon.

Looking forward to this!
