Discussion»Questions»answerMug» Would it be better if the trending 10 lists ran down the side of the site on the home page, rather than having tabs you have to click on?
It might not be a lot we have to do, but scrolling down the page would have me look more regularly on the top ten than by the drop down menu. But that will be me. Gah.
Hmm... That's the other thing. Our mobile users would have to scroll wayyyyyy more. That would be a pain in the butt. :/ Maybe people are still getting their Mug legs and they'll resume blogging in a couple of days.
I believe you're right. We all have to get used and settled in with the changed format. I suspect it will come. The Q&A seems being running nice now. We still need the groups to get started. At least the ones I was most active in. It's been a while since I made my latest blog. Hmm.
JA, It's kind of like moving to a new place, like I did a few months ago. LOL I think many of us are finding our way around our new 'neighborhood' and there are things we are still taking in. I'm sure once we have settled in, there WILL be more people bloggng.
The problem here is that most of the blogs suck. Somehow blog space have become a soapbox where people propagandize for their political views and prozelytize for their religious views. They usually disable comments, probably to avoid making it too glaringly obvious that they know how unpopular their extreeme views are.
Mkay, but regardless of your opinion on the blogs, people have still been writing them, so that doesn't explain why they haven't been writing them since the move. And, for what it's worth, we removed the ability for people to moderate comments in blogs here. Either they accept dissenting opinions, show their blogs to just their friends, or they don't post. Limiting responses is not an option anymore.
People are having to relearn the UI. While it offers many more features, it's harder to navigate than the previous rev. I'd give it a week or two and then worry about the fringes. :-)
I'm finding it easier to navigate and I am far from being 'computer literate'....LOL I can actually figure things out without having to ask my friends. I think we just need to have time to settle in and enoy this site.

It is, but it's in a tabbed container. You have to click "more" to see other types of content. Previously, I had all leaderboards out in the open.
I just learned after the launch that it's doing "all time" leaderboards. There's no way for me to configure it to show things that are currently trending, like for the week. It's on the dev list.
Perhaps. That's essentially what we have here in the main Q&A. I spent about 20 minutes pressing the "quick reply" button and flying to the bottom and then pressing the up arrow and zipping back up. It's the little things in life. lol
The site is still brand new to most users and everyone is still learning their way around, I'd give people time to settle in.
The new format is much cleaner, in large part, due to the drop down menus, imo. I did not feel it took me that long to acclimate to the new format and now find it easier to navigate than the old one.
