There are a few folks who have dark background sites on SocialGO. In such cases, the standard dark transparency of Who-IM Or Video Chat doesn't stand out strongly. No worries, it's easy to change the color (and the font size of the text) with some basic CSS.

WriteBoard from 37 Signals is an incredibly versatile, yet simple tool.... and it is Free.

ScribeFire is a great blog editor to have running in your FireFox browser.

Provides you with the extra "zing" you need to be a power-blogger on your SocialGO or Zocku networks.

If you want to hide individual LabTabs but retain the page content (so you can link to it discretely), this is really easy with CSS.

Just use the following code in your Ads & Custom HTML area within the Admin Center. Put the code into the Head Meta Data area.

Change out the "_forum" below for whatever element ID you have assigned to each tab, and repeat this same block of CSS for every tab you want to hide (only use one set of style tags though).

<style>
#labtab_forum{
display:none!important
}
</style>
