I got a free weekend!!!  Whitney has to go to Jacksonville to pick up her wedding dress so that means I get the whole weekend on the couch to myself.

Coding plans are:

Blog archiving by date
Press release rating system
Blog taggin (well, start it at least...)

Any other requests I've missed or forgotten in the last couple of months? Any new Requests?

I just noticed that if I click 'view more press releases', then click 'next page' it returns me to the top of the page, so I have to scroll down to see the next page of press releases. Could you set it to jump to the section when people click next page, instead of returning to the top of the page?

It should stick the next 8 releases in the rotating showcase.  That's why it goes back to the top of the page.  Maybe I shouldn't make it do that?

"Blog taggin (well, start it at least...)"

How about Boss Taggin'?

Like, Odyssey would have tags showing he's an expert at "NSF Applications" & "Being Australian" and a "Blogger"

Jade would have "Blogger" and "Biotech" tags

GertyZ "Blogger" & "Ast Prof", or "TT" or "Token Minority"

I would have "Blogger" "Asshole" and maybe "Do not Feed", y know?

 

See below examples of what I mean from a MA forum I loiter about on. Simio is a moderator (red name), site sponsor, and has documented proof he is a MA instructor & active duty military. Other's earn (with proff) tags for Judo black belt, BJJ Purple/Brown/Black, Black in some style of karate (Kyokushin for example)...

I have "Sponsor" and "Scientist" - I proved i had my PhD. So I get to be "expert" when science shit comes up, Simio is "expert" in Aikido etc.

I was thinking about doing something similar with the points system, TideLiar.Like have "rankings" ex: Test Tube washer, dirty undergrad, Unfed Grad student etc.

Person taggin would be pretty sweet. I'll put that on the list too.  But who will dole out the tags?  Give the bloggers the ability to tag people?

Have a couple of designated mods who can cull spam and warn trolls. Then the Overlord and his mods can decide who gets what...

Hahaha.. thats a great idea! How about we mark them as 'plagued', or like if youre found to be trolling x amount of times, everything you try to write becomes font size 2, or better yet, changes to 'I suck and I am sorry, LabSpace is the greatest' in big girly pink letters, upon hitting the 'post' button, and hey since users cant delete their comments.. hehehe.. yea.. I like this idea, guys? :)
