It’s the return of the son of the dreaded midday open thread... New feature in your “My Favorites” page: you can specify a list of tags as a filter. Right now it works as an “OR” filter; if any of the tags match, the favorite shows up in the list. I’ll ...

Sun, Mar 23, 2008 at 2:56 pm PDT

Lots of work behind the scenes today on the tag auto-completion feature in your “My Favorites” page. With some more Ajax goodies installed, working with tags is much more responsive. * If you add a new tag, or delete an existing tag completely from all your favorites, you’ll now see the ...

Tech Note: Favorites, Now with Auto-Completing Tags

Sat, Mar 22, 2008 at 3:52 pm PDT

Another cool enhancement to the Favorites feature tonight: when entering tags for an item, you’ll now see a list of ‘auto-complete’ suggestions, pulled from your current tags.

Saturday Midday Open

Sat, Mar 22, 2008 at 11:31 am PDT

Saturday morning is almost a memory, and here’s an open thread... I’ll be digging around and refining the “Favorites” code today, so if by any chance an LGF feature doesn’t seem to be working right for you, refresh the page completely. Some browsers like to hang on to their cache so ...

The LGF enhancement du jour: a very helpful tool for organizing your saved favorites, a tool that we will call “tags.” Because everyone else does. In your My Favorites page, each saved favorite can now have its own series of tags (or keywords). Click the “Tags” link at lower right of ...

About Those Little Red Hearts

Fri, Mar 21, 2008 at 9:03 am PDT

Since the original announcement has scrolled down the page I’m beginning to get emails from people asking, “Hey, what’s with all those little red hearts?” (You need to be registered and logged in to see them.) That’s our new Favorites feature, that saves links to any front page entry, spinoff link, ...

Tech Note: Favorites!

An open thread just to test the new Favorites feature, before formally announcing... UPDATE at 3/20/08 9:18:55 pm: It’s alive! Here’s the idea: next to each front page entry, spinoff link, and comment, you’ll now see a little red heart if you’re logged in. Click that red heart and it turns green, to ...

Thursday Technical Binge

Thu, Mar 20, 2008 at 4:06 pm PDT

I’m coding away like mad after reviewing usability and security for the new “Favorites” feature, soon to be unveiled. If you’re a registered lizard, this feature will let you easily add any LGF entry, link (from ‘top links’ or ‘spinoff links’), or comment to a personalized list of favorites that ...
