Sample the New LDS Youth Site

This is an article adapted from ldsmediatalk.com created by the technical staff at Church headquarters:

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is gathering feedback from some of the youth of the Church about what kind of web site the Church could  build that would bring youth closer to the Savior and help them feel more connected to the Gospel and to the Church.

Anyone with a Facebook account, can join this Facebook site and enter the discussion. The builders of the site would love your feedback!

There is also a web site where the technical staff link to some things they’re thinking about which might never actually come to fruition. It’s called Labs. You can check out some prototypes on Labs. Use the ID “youthtester” and the password “helaman2000.”

The technical staff are accepting a limited number of people to have a more personalized experience on Labs. To apply, sign up for an LDS Account. You’ll need your member number, which you can get from your ward clerk, and your birth date. Then send your LDS Account name to labs@ldschurch.org. They’ll accept as many as they can until the servers get overloaded.

Once you send the email and they get back to you, you’ll be able to log into Labs with your own LDS Account and you’ll be able to view your own ward directory online and record your thoughts and feelings about General Conference and recall them later.

In addition, you’ll be able to use your LDS Acccount for other web sites the Church is currently working on that will come out this year.
