Feature release: Following

 

Hey Currentians,

 

Yesterday I highlighted the release of our commenting upgrade, but another aspect of our released slipped under the radar: Following. If you've visited a profile page recently, you may have noticed that your connections module no longer exists.

 

Don't panic! We've replaced the connections module with a followers module, which clearly lays out a new distinction between the people who follow you vs. the people you follow. 

 

Now you can easily tell who you are following and who is following you, and then you can make adjustments accordingly. As always, the ability to manage your blocked lists is rolled into these lists so you can keep track of who you have on your "don't bother me" list as well.

 

 

Additionally, we've made some changes to the profile layout again. Obviously the addition of a "Follow" button was necessary, but we also tweaked our "Send a message" button as well.

 

For this first iteration, we are laying the groundwork for further improvements to our sharing and private messaging systems on Current. We'll post updates to those as they arise. For now, follow and be followed!

 

Like the changes? Have some feedback? Please be sure to share your reactions in the comments below, and if you notice any bugs or have any recommendations visit our Get Satisfaction support page and leave us some feedback.

 

Thanks!

mario
