It's very simple right now but it's evolving rapidly.
VERY easy, definitely check it out... just create an account and you can ask any "Yes or No" type question, plus answer other peoples questions.
Things coming soon:
* Other types of questions (numerical, multiple choice, etc.) * More advanced stats (breakdown stats by demographics; male/female, country, etc.) * Ability to add a question to your blogs
Let me know here if you have any questions or problem... there will definitely be some glitches, it is done just enough to work and now I'm going to clean it up a bit.
Happy New Year to everyone on the stream! This is our first official "full year"... thanks for being part of it!
I wanted to put this song up for you all. I love all of the old historic clips... I don't know why but I actually get a little teary eyed listening to this.
This post has content which will only be displayed when viewing this post by itself, or when the post is the first on the page.
I added a few more links to the emails you receive when you get a public comment...
Instead of just going to the original post, viewing the profile, or replying privately you can now:
* Reply to the comment thread publically * Reply to the comment and CC the person that wrote the comment * Jump to the last comment in the thread for that post
I am also working to have the system double check that you are logged in as you before you reply... this is a "gotya" that basically effects multi-blogger households. For example:
* Joe and Mary are spouses in the same household * Joe is logged into his account in the web browser * Mary receives an email that someone left a comment on her blog * Mary responds using the "reply" link in the email
Currently the reply will come from Joe if Mary is not paying attention...
It's not done yet (very shortly) but the system will try to catch this situation and warn you that you are not logged in as Mary.
Also, I believe I increased the Post/Add Comment auto-logout times from 30 minutes to 75 minutes. Let me know if this seems to help (or if you are still experiencing the problem.)
Oh just added one more thing, the blog post title now appears in "blog updated" notifications...
Many Blogstream members are there
already! Quotes from members: "It's like blog lite!" -- "I like the instant
gratification!" -- "Stop spectating, get in the game!"
If you have not joined in, you are really missing out!
