New and improved Metatalk

May 7, 2000 8:23 PM

The new and improved MetaTalk is now live. Feel free to tell me what you think about it, and bring up any bugs you find in the bugs area.

The old format was date based, like the weblog, but things discussed here weren't really date dependent. If someone asked for a new feature or highlighted a bug, and I didn't fix it in a week, the post was basically gone forever.

I think the new format meshes better with the way I'd like MetaTalk used - discuss and read topics based on the subject, instead of the date.

Oh - I hope no one minds that I took the liberty of categorizing all the previous posts. Most were obvious, but a few could have been in two or more different categories. If you have any suggestions for new categories, by all means, mention it in the feature requests area.

For what it's worth: my Tandy crashed 3 times in a row trying to open metafilter.net. Everything else on my win98 IE5 seems to be running smoothly. Just thought I'd let ya know

Empirical data that Macs are better: no problems on my front. I use the very cranky NN 4.08, while we're at it.
