a page with all of the users names on it, a way to change your info thing, a pole for the song of the week, and link to listen to it. you probably have all of this but i don't know 'cause i'm new a...

I like those suggestions... I would like to add one, though... a directory so you can go to a user's profile page. Right now, I have to search musings and find a user, then click on their name and...

that's a good suggestion. would anybody want their name not displayed on that list? should it only display users that have been active in the past month or so? as a weak workaround, a convenie...

actually, i don't know what kind of info u plan to have accessible in our profile, but to keep outsiders outside, maybe there can be a 'favorite users' list that we each have. and to add to that li...

why would each person have their own user list of others? that makes no sense.

sux2beme sux2bemeOG 2002

actually, you're kinda right about that. i'd have to turn to dave for an answer since he's the one that brought it up...dave?

Not a buddy list, I didn't say that (actually, you did, Brian)... just a page that had a directory of sorts that would list all the users, then you could click on the user name you are looking for and that would take you to their profile.

when did I say buddy list? are you talking about ian?

Comment number 99... which says in part

"but to keep outsiders outside, maybe there can be a 'favorite users' list that we each have. and to add to that list, we would select a name, then a message would be sent to that person allowing them to allow or deny the addition."

Sounds like a buddy list to me... sorry if I misunderstood...

think "buddy list". not a bad idea.

hmm, what about instant messaging? haha. (actually ian, I could make that.)

iwz iwz

but can you make it without using an applet?

ekulu ekuluOG 2002

what do you have againt applets, ian?

iwz iwz

they're slow, and usually annoying.

sux2beme sux2bemeOG 2002

doesn't that get away from the whole concept? i mean, we can all use IM's now. the musings is a cool way to see what other people are talking about, and contribute if we want. if we had an IM, then what's the point.

iwz iwz

well, same thing with the Inbox and Chat room on here. You can just use email, and AIM Chat Rooms (etc.). Instant Messenging on eZ would be very cool, cause you don't know everybody's screen names on AIM/MSN/ICQ/whatever, and some people don't even use that stuff. You could just see somebody on the site, click on their name, and IM or eZ Msg them... pretty neat idea.

sux2beme sux2bemeOG 2002

well, when you put it THAT way...
