Blogware users got a small preview of version 1.0 this week with the release of our new Address Book and Friends functionality.

The Address Book is a pretty cool mechanism that provides Blogware Publishers with some pretty nifty tools for managing the relationships between users and content.

The other new function, Friends, is a simple tool that allows users to connect with one another and will act as the basis for a bunch of cool new services as we move forward.

Play around with them and let me know what you think (keeping in mind that this is "pre-release preview beta not-finished yet" stuff....)
