Changes to Activity Feed: Expect some changes to occur Monday, July 11
Working together with ning,, our service provider we are expecting some changes designed to give us greater flexibility in what and how items are displayed in Activity Feed. Thank you for your feedback and comments. Be sure to check in sometime Monday to see the updates.
I'm excited to announce that the new Activity Feed is now live.
Here's a recap of everything that's in this release:
Members can post a Status from the Main Page
Members can comment and like photos, videos, blog posts, and statuses inline from the Activity Feed
The Activity Feed is cleaner and that makes it easier for members to interact with content in the feed
Videos are playable inline from the Activity Feed, and photo thumbnails are larger
Please note that all of these changes have automatically taken effect on our iKnife Collector, Ning Network There will not be a switch to revert back to the old version.
We know many of youmay have questions over this new feature, and we'll be monitoring progress throughout the week.
These improvements will make the Activity Feed a much better feature. We've already heard a lot of great ideas around how we can make the Activity Feed even better, including an option to See More items, see new items that have come up since you loaded the page, and the option to add photos, videos, and other content directly to the Activity Feed. We're considering additional improvements based on all of your feedback and are excited to hear more feedback as we roll out the new Activity Feed!

OK remember when I said I'd turn comments back to just comment between two people. Well it turns out its all or nothing, so I'm going with all and lobbying for a change, which is being considered, no guarantees though. You might say its a fluid situation...

Hog,
I like it for the blog areas but not sure about it posting messages to people. I think I liked that part better when it just said I left a comment for someone or visa versa. Either way, it will certainly be easier for newer members to see whats happening

Hog,
Don't make life tuff on yourself. If it's all or nothing then you have made the right choice with all

Currently we do not have an exact time for the new look but I will say expect it Monday. Nothing is too hard to do for all my friends on iKnife!

Hey Hog,
One of newer members Gus Marsh is retired IBM. He says he would be willing to help with the computer stuff if we need it. Maybe that would be someone that could actually help you with things

And thank you for the time, effort and just plain old fashion hard work you do for us

Steve .. I think the "Latest Activity" feed looks better .. it's more along the lines of the original.

I agree with Dale the latest activity is very nice. I am glad they made it easier for you to manage around in, anything that makes it easier for you is OK with me!
