It's been a while since there's been anything posted on this here Askville blog. We have no excuse, except that there have been some changes to the team and like every transition, if we have nothing to say, we don't say it. :)
That being said - we finally DO have some updates and changes coming down the pipe - and we are happy to say that this includes more frequent updating of the Askville blog.
Here's what we've been up to in the last couple of months:
1. We have a new moderator (me) - GenelleH and not only am I here to enforce our TOS and GNP, but I'm also here to get to know our Askville community, gather input, figure out how to make things great, and overall be here for you. We know the Site Suggestions section has been left to fallow a bit but we're going to be refocusing efforts on reviewing all your input.
2. We have a new head of develoment - Alex and he's tasked with looking over all the great feedback and putting what we can into place!
Here's some of what's coming down the pipe:
1. We've really listened to you guys, and heard an overwhelming desire to bring back the search bar on Askville. Well, it should be here soon, so stay tuned!
2. We're looking at giving Askville a bit of a facelift - purely aesthetic to start, and changes will be rolled out in small phases. If you see anything and have comments and feedback, please let us know!
We're also hearing a lot from newcomers that sometimes, Askville is a little hard to figure out. I urge everyone to check out our Help & FAQ page, because well, it's pretty comprehensive and Askville is fairly simple to figure out once you've got the basics down. :) If it's not - well - let us know!
Till the next time...
Genelle
