Hello everyone,

We're writing to let you know about a great new feature we'll be adding to Inspire in the very near future: guestbooks. This is a feature that many of you have requested, and we're very excited to add it. You may already be familiar with the idea of a guestbook. Very simply, your guestbook is a section of your profile where friends and family can leave you messages of support, encouragement and inspiration. We know how much the support you receive from Inspire means to you, and guestbooks will make it easy for your friends and family -- even if they're not members of Inspire -- to say they are there for you too.

Some additional information about guestbooks:

- We'll provide you with tools that make it easy to invite your friends and family to sign your guestbook
- As always, you'll have privacy settings that enable you to control who can see your guestbook
- Anyone who signs your guestbook will have the option of giving you (free) virtual gifts!

We're very excited to provide you with another way to receive the support that we know is so important to you. If you have any questions about guestbooks or any Inspire features, please let us know. You can reply here, or write us at team@inspire.com.

Thanks for your time and for being part of Inspire!
