Welcome to Land Rover Owner's first blog. We'll maintain this as a team.
Today website editor (www.lro.com) David Cushman brings us up to date with progress towards a new site for LRO:
Hello, I'm hoping many of the visitors to this blog will be familiar with the lro.com website - mostly because there will be a link from our site to this.
To be honest, this is likely to be a fairly short-lived blog because when our new site launches later this month it will come equipped with blogs of our own.
Not only will the staff be able to use them to keep you up to date with our activities and Land Rovers, but our thousands of users will be able to create their own too.
You'll be able to contribute your own thoughts on your vehicles, places to go, events, products and news - plus rate other people's contributions.
I'm told we're just days away from completion of that part of the new site. We're also putting the finishing touches to a much improved forum - replicating much of what php bulletin boards do.
At the same time we're simplifying registration so one registration does it all - and if you are already registred with lro.com you won't need to register again when the new site goes live.
The office is fairly quiet today - Neil, Mark and JP are all in the workshop tinkering with project Disco. When we launch our own blogs on the new site we'll get regular updates on exactly that kind of thing.
Today on the site we've been updating our YouTube channel (lrotv) and now have 100 favourites added - plus 21 of our own videos. They've notched up close to 40,000 views now.
You'll find them at http://www.youtube.com/landroverowner
And we've been sorting out screen grabs for the company's annual awards bash.

The new LRO site is now live. If you have reached this blog while intending to find www.lro.com please CLICK HERE
