Qonversation Feature Requests

    theseaocean you know how in the main page you are given all these different posts and mousing over them makes them different colors? can you make it so that clicking on that color box sends you right to that comment?

    unless i'm missing something, there's no way to go directly to a post, only to the thread and scroll to it.

    danielguillan @texjer, maybe a stupid question but have you tried to leave the Quonversation using the link on the left? I joined #invite-shareswap too and posted a few times. I just leaved it today and I don't see it anymore...

    reddo what about macro-topics (or parent topics) ? I can still search and join conversations like it is right now, but if i see macro topics it would be easier to find a conversation. eg: audio, video, numbers, words... don't know... simple stuff... like in forums.

    texjer I like that the list of topics is all of the topics. I hope this can stay, I just hit ctrl-f and find the post I want to go to. I also recently discovered that you can do this #tex-jernigan #twitter #Google #Qonversation and have links to pages on here. It'd be neat if there was more hidden functionality like that. So right now I'm brainstorming (@#&$(@#$&

    @suprb out of curiousity are there any other hidden functionalities? And if not, which keys should I consider using? % $

    danieldiggle And what about only showing images in reply posts when your looking at the 'dedicated page' for that discussion.
    I'm thinking that images can be great to further discussions, but they could mess up the aesthetics of the main feed ( "all" ). Ideally you'd be using the main feed to check what people are talking about, then click in to engage with the content. A ton of images will hinder that quick view process. (I think)

    3stripe I've no idea how it would look, but imagine some kind of contextual rollover on the homepage that gave you a preview of the thread that each comment came from.

    Perhaps just a few of the comments before/after it in the thead.

    For me the lack of context on the homepage is slightly frustrating, I don't want to have to open up 20 threads to see what everything's about...

    hellodrew The ability to add a poll to a new topic you start. I'm seeing a lot of "this or that" type topics that would greatly benefit from a tally of people's responses.

    danieldiggle When someone's discussing a link it feels like the box containing it should be more prominent - perhaps a nice bright orange - it's the reference to the discussion (as an image would be) so you - the user - should feel naturally drawn to it's position.
