Feedback on Family Journal Sharing?

If you've got feedback about sharing your stories with the Cozi family journal, we'd love to hear it!

We’ve added lots of new sharing features to the family journal in recent weeks, and we want to know what’s working and what’s not. 

What's new? In addition to sharing your family journal posts on Facebook, you can now set up email newsletters so your family members who are not on Facebook will also receive your updates.  You can also share via Twitter, and you can send individual posts by email.

We want to know if you've tried these features, and if so, what you think of them.  Our goal as always is to simplify your family life.  Is it working?  What's missing that you'd like to see? Overall, do you have suggestions for how we could improve the sharing capabilities in the family journal?

Thanks for using Cozi, and for sharing your feedback!

I have tried sharing newsletters via email and the web. The email share was VERY slow to complete. It seemed like Cozi was loading the emails/posts forever. Cozi in general seems to be running slow for me. I have DSL and firefox. Despite that, I love Cozi. It is a wonderful thing for my family. And I have showed it to, and recommended it to many of my family and friends and they love it too.

I love the idea of the newsletter email. I'm eager to see how it works (the Sept one will be my first)! I would really love to be able to easily upload my family journal notes to my existing blog. In general, I've been having fun keeping track of life with Cozi!

Given the recent Shutterfly promotion, I got to thinking how it would have been nice to have a setting to send journal entries to Shutterfly for a start point to assemble a book - Digital is fun for folks I have shared with, but there is something about a coffee table book of great memories just waiting for that house of guests to pick up and thumb through in front of the fire while we are entertaining -- could also be provide a nice permanant advertisement for Cozi on every page...subtle and sophisticated. Can someone fill my wine glass please I am having too much fun reading these entries!

On a more creative note - first the collage screensaver is a work of art. However, when I post journal entries I often find deciding on the "one" picture to capture the essence of my story is a tough task. I would love to add a few pics (sure limit me to maybe 3 or 4) and similar to the screensaver, assemble them is an artistic way around my text - I think that would make for a very fine looking journal!

I am trying to use the family journal more often, but my perfectionism gets in the way... I need a spell check. I currently cut and paste into word to check spelling and then post. Any easier way to do this would be appreciated!

I really love the ability to send the family journal newsletter.

What I would love is to have people not only be able to add a smile to a story, but to add comments as well.

Thanks for your feedback, and for this great suggestion. This might be something we could incorporate into the family journal in the future. We appreciate your input!
