Technical Suggestion: Spotlights & Categories
September 12th 2008 10:31
Just a suggestion to improve the ease of operation of the site:
To select "Spotlight" posts and allocate posts to personal Catergories it would be much easier if there was an editing window where all the posts for the blog appear as thumbnails and you can click and drag them in and out of the "Spotlight" or Category folders.
I imagine it is a major overhaul but it would be a feature that could help retain writers who are looking for user-friendly tools and options for their blogs. Maybe something to keep in mind for the future?
Similarly altering the "Relate Post" function to include the ability to select multiple posts at the same time would be a great feature. If it was easier to use more people would take advantage of it and there could be more inter-Orble traffic from people who have Googled their way to Orble and are still looking for more info on a particular topic.
Some blogging sites even have the "related posts" come up as an automated list which results from a keyword or title search across the site - something like that might help boost the amount of Orble posts/blogs that an individual reader will click on in any one session?

We will have to do a major overhaul at some point. I imagine the new version would include features like this.
Let me know if you have any other ideas, they are always helpful.
