3. Red Hot Expert of the Month: It's a Close Race!
Congratulations to AzraSound who is the most active Expert for the third time with 172 accepted answers for the month of June. However, it's a closer race than it appears, as the second, third and fourth most active Experts have only five points separating them. With 108 accepted answers, Marine occupies second place and nietod is poised to lead at any moment with 106 accepted answers for the month. Epsylon takes fourth place with 103 accepted answers. All of these answers are entries into the Answer & Win! drawing and all of these Experts have already won. Names to watch for the next drawing are GivenRandy, robbert, jlevie and nico5038. Check your profile to see where you are in the race.
 
4. What's New at EE?
Did you delete the last newsletter and forget to catch the URL for that new topic area or other interesting bit of information? EE members will no longer miss out on the latest developments within the community due to the addition of "What's New." This new page will be accessible from the left navigation bar and will house the latest newsletter, along with other updates. If there's anything new that the community should know, we will post it here first. Be sure to check back often, as updates will occur regularly.
 
5. Need Question Points?
If you're still looking for more Question Points, help is on the way. The "Earn Points" link, located on the top navigation bar, offers several new opportunities that will reward Question Points to those who complete surveys and questionnaires for EE in the coming weeks. All information is confidential, and demographics gathered from these surveys will be stored as anonymous information and used for our advertising media kit. Members may only fill out a survey once, and the points will be automatically added to your account. Visit the "Earn Points" page http://www.experts-exchange.com/bin/MorePoints and load up on points this month.
 
6. Community Comments Get People Talking
Under the About Us header on the top navigation bar, you'll find a new page called "Community Comments," where members may earn 20 Question Points if they submit their thoughts on the EE Collaboration Network. We will be updating this page as new comments are received, creating many chances to receive Question Points and to let the community know how you feel. So the next time you're out of points and simply can't live without asking a question or buying a PAQ, send us a message to share@experts-exchange.com explaining how EE assists you or see what others are saying about us at
