"Most Favorited Tracks from your contacts" is A Thing
- Go to music.metafilter.com
- Check sidebars
- One will list "Most Favorited Tracks from your contacts"
- Some of these songs won't be Jingle Rock Bell (but luckily some will)
- Punch 'Em In The Dick!
- (Er, by which I mean "please comment, favourite or just enjoy listening to the best of MeFi Music")
- Cheers MetaFilter!
Things I favorited by my contacts?
Is there an easy way to see, for each of my contacts or for an individual user who is a contact, things that _I_ have favorited? This would be a quick way for me to remind myself why I have marked that user as a contact. [more inside]
Can we add more options for the Contacts' relationship categories?
I find the options in the Contacts form for relationships somewhat limiting. I know this is trivial but I can't help thinking it could be awesomer. [more inside]
I want to know exactly where I'm going.
In the front page "contact activity" section, if one of your contacts has a best answer, it specifies the AskMetafilter question where the answer appears. I wonder, can something similar be done for "has a comment with X favorites," instead of just saying "in AskMetafilter" or "in MetaFilter"?
Could we get an option to APPROVE somebody adding us as a contact?
I know that different people use contacts for different things. I use mine as a mental reference to remember people I admire, so that if I'm ever discussing anything with them, I can remember to be nicer to them and assume more good faith on their part. Others use it to bookmark people whose posts they enjoy reading. Still others do it for networking purposes. Whatever.
Even though contacts aren't reciprocal, it seems somebody odd that we don't have an "opt-out" option that lets us remove people from our contacts list. It seems to me that it would be relatively simple to implement this option, and that the current system as it is set up facilitates both bullying and cyberstalking. Could an option like this be added, please?
I think I might be my own grandpaw, or six degrees of Brandon Blatcher
I was wondering, has anyone has ever charted the tangled web of linked to/by relationships, or if that was even feasible with datamuckery? It's approaching four years since the great enspousening, and I was wondering how we are all interconnected. [more inside]
Quonser-Quonsee Relations
A tiny Quonsmas pony for all! Could we get some sort of "Quonsed" option for the relationships list when we're adding contacts? [more inside]
Disabled Contacts
7 people just removed me from their contact list! From beyond the MeFi grave! [more inside]
It's a small MetaFilter world
The contacts section allows us to indicate who we've actually met. Would the infodump be able to tell us who among us has met the most MeFites? I know it's dependent on people selecting the "met" box when listing a contact, but I'm curious about the number.
Diaspora
Are any mefites on Diaspora? I just got my invite and I see three other people there who are following #metafilter, but I bet there's more of you. I'd like to systematically add mefites as contacts, so if you are on there and want to be added, please either follow #metafilter, or contact me.
The Usual Suspects
Why do other Metafilter users, who I've never emailed with, show up as potential contacts on Google+ ? [more inside]
Where My (MetaFilter) Homies Is At?
Is there a search-for-contacts, find-your-friends feature buried somewhere in MetaFilter? I'd love to see if any other folks that I know are MeFites, and would gladly grant the site temporary access to my GMail address book to find out... if ONLY there were a WAY to DO it!
Contacts?
What are contacts? And what does it mean when someone adds you as a contact?
Time to let go
This is either a pony, or it exists and I can't see it -- is there a way to remove disabled accounts from your contacts?....I just wanted to do some cleaning up.
This is low priority, though, so I can deal if it's just not possible. Thanks.
Missing contact's most favorited posts on sidebar but not elsewhere.
My front page contact sidebar is no longer showing posts by contacts that have received the threshold of 12+ favorites, plus other odd behavior. [more inside]
Yeah, I don't want to see that anymore.

notification that a contact's account is closed?
If a contact's account is closed, either because they chose to disable it or they got banned, can (should?) that show up in the "Contact Activity" sidebar?
3...2...1...CONTACT!
When making a new contact, the following doesn't seem to be very MeFi-centric.
Friendship acquaintance friend none
Physical I have met this user in the real world.
Professional co-worker colleague
Geographical co-resident neighbor none
Family child parent sibling spouse kin none
Romantic muse crush date sweetheart [more inside]
Don't take this the wrong way, jessamyn...
Lacking confidence, I will not call this a pony. It's just a suggestion: how about setting that optionally removes moderators from the "contact activity" sidebar? I adore jessamyn, and many of her answers deserve to be favorites/best answers, but due to her high-profile here, my list has become a digest of jessamyn's activity, which crowds out all my other contacts. (This only affects people who have moderators as contacts.)

My little pony: On the contacts page, can we have links to filter contacts based on the XFN links we've applied to them? [more inside]

Obscure bug found only because I'm realllllly bored at work
The last five favorited posts from my contacts is borked. It shows that the last favorite was added over a year ago. But, for example, the contact shown (grumblebee), has favorited a bunch of stuff since then, including a post today.
Color coded usernames
I'm terrible at remembering names. It would be great to have usernames that are favorites show up as a different color. Is there a way?
Your ideas are intriguing to me and I wish to subscribe to your newsletter.

Asking for the removal of a feature.
What's the point of "[Your Contact] just added [other member] as a contact."? Why should I care about that? I can understand highlighting the posts/fpps/best answers of my contacts but this just seems overkill. I'm casting my vote for removing this option. [more inside]
Contacts Favorites Bug?
Last Five Favorite posts from ___'s contacts & Last Five Favorite comments from ___'s contacts does not match up with Favorite posts from ___'s contacts & Favorite comments from ___'s contacts. I guess it's vaguely possible that this is because "Last" works on when something was favorited as opposed to when the favorited thing was posted, but the discrepancy is pretty large and I think there's a bug there.
Ponies are pointless but fun!
Pointless And Maybe Drunken Pony Request: Can you please change the boxes in the contact section which allows us to describe our relationship to the contact so they say whatever term we choose, like the gender one does? [more inside]
Let me know about the Mefi Lovin'
This may be a stupid question; it may well have been discussed in the posts regarding the Metafilter messaging system, but they are legion and I am inebriated. But can we have a message sent to our inbox if someone adds us as a "contact"? [more inside]

Recent Activity RSS Feed?
Would it be totally server-juice-draining to provide a user-specific Contacts' Recent Activity RSS feed?
RSS Feed for My Contacts Page
How about an RSS feed for the Recent Activity From My Contacts page? It would make stalking others following my contacts a lot easier. [more inside]
Contact List Formatting
A quick formatting request for the contacts lists: "links to" and "linked by" as vertical lists side by side rather than as blocks of inline text. Also, a little icon to indicate mutual contacts, and a little plus sign to add new non-mutual contacts from the "linked by" list. I have the del.icio.us contacts list in mind.
