Re: Beta Testers Wanted: Dropbox to OurDoings

It keeps track of doings published since the last email update so that
you send only new stuff. It let's people see your doings right in
their mail without clicking a link.

The "Get Updates" function is for emails you send through OurDoings. Right
now there's no email confirmation about uploads working. I can see how that
could be desirable, though. I'll see what I can come up with.

Guilty as charged. We're still trying to figure out what to do ad-wise.

That's a good summary. Trial and error works when the trials give you more
information, or when they don't take much effort. When the trials involve
coordinating a lot of people and don't give new information, a little
thinking ahead would help.

Great. Email ourdoings@ourdoings.com with details on what you'd like.

Glad you like it. One more tip: If you try it, use a large pile of photos.
One or two won't really give you the experience.

Yes, that's actually funnier than what I wrote in the post itself. Curses,
foiled again.

Would the reverse order be considered more respectful? If so, I'll change
it.

Each month has a page of its own. Use the links under "archive" in the
right sidebar. Is that what you want?

Don't apologize for ad-supported. I want feedback more than revenue
at this point. I don't even make money from the ads. They're
placeholders so I don't surprise people later.

That's good advice. At the time I thought it was clever to talk about
cost in terms of time rather than money, but now I think it's just
confusing. I'll change it soon.

On the page where you upload photos there's a bulleted list of other ways to
upload, including email.

Your site does Media RSS, so you can use it as a blog on FriendFeed and the
thumbnails will be picked up. Try the "Get Updates" tab for other RSS feeds
and an embeddable slide show.

Splitting/combining entries can be done.

Thanks for the feedback. I'm rushing off to the Police concert in Boston
now but will look at the other things you mentioned later.

Click on a calendar icon and use the edit tab to change the date.
You're the second person today to talk about the charging thing, so
clearly I need to fix that. There's an old payment system that let's
you lose the ads, but I need to hide that.

I haven't made enough effort to keep news.yc people updated with a lot of
the changes I've made. Yes, please try it and give me your feedback.
