David Lapedis I was trying to respond to multiple people from my blog and have spaces in between the paragraphs. (Eg. @Ryan, @Eric) It looks bad to have it all lumped together in one giant paragraph.

MoreI was trying to respond to multiple people from my blog and have spaces in between the paragraphs. (Eg. @Ryan, @Eric) It looks bad to have it all lumped together in one giant paragraph.

Is there an easy way to do this that I'm unaware of. I'll have it set that way in the reply message, but it just combines when I submit my reply.

Some employers listed Canadian cities, but chose the state of an American city with the same name. I saw one posting listing as "Ontario, CA" which I thought wasn't so helpful considering how huge the province of Ontario actually is. I would love to be able to search for Canadian jobs by city in the future. It would definitely make Brazen more Canadian friendly! : )

I LOVE that you answer questions, that's obviously the most valuable aspects of these video meetings. But you may want to make your main point succinct and deliver it as a starting point for convo in the beginning before taking questions. Like if you summarized why twitter could change your life in like 3 mins, then spent the rest of the time asking questions, and linking your responses back to your initial point

One thing that can be improved is to increase the character limits to the questions, as I had trouble phrasing it within 100 characters to ask what I really meant. By the way, I'm not sure if Penelope is also reading this, but I'm not sure how they made that gender mistake. I got quite dazed.

How about adding the ability to search for a company and find out who either works at the company ( based on their resume portion of the profile ) or find out who used to work at the company.
Finding out who is connected with a company easily would make brazen a great resource for targeting your networking towards the job you want.
