  3. Wow, this is sweet. Nice charts showing activity. Comments above the fold. Very cool. Love the constant innovation around here, y'know?

    Only suggestion: I'd put "About This Story" at the top of the right column, above the submitter info.

  5. This makes up for them changing View details into view story. I like it.

    1. @mortalwind I actually kinda liked that. Sure it was annoying getting used to it but think about it, might get more people involved in the conversation if they see the comments, rather than just clicking on the story to read and then vote.

    2. @DarkNemesis618 not sure I am getting the point of the switch, is it not just reversed? anyway it does not matter I am aclimating to it.

  8. It is possible that I'm having a blind moment, but what happened to a link for supermixxers to click on to endorse a given site? I checked subs from sites that aren't "endorsed" and I couldn't find an endorse link....

      Actually I prefer the "ENDORSED BY SUPERMIXXERS" thing being less concealed. I'm sure the owners of the sites in question might feel the same too. Anyone else think the same way?

  10. The idea is good but the result could be better:

    1. The "Submitted by" should be closer to the submitted content, me thinks.

    2. What if Submission A is in, let's say, 3 groups/communities and has comments in all of them? It's really difficult to be informed about that now, isn't it? I mean, we have to go through all the categories, one by one...

    1. @SebKom Oh boy. We lost our drop down in this redesign to allow you to jump to comments in groups and back again. Total brain freeze by us on that one :( Part of what we were trying to do was simplify but we simplified too much :(

      We'll get it back in asap.

  11. Mixx team:
    these changes are amazing! It's good to see a votes per hour / votes overall chart that other social sites always have to rely on external sources for. The placement and formatting of about this site is also top notch. I'm a stats hound, so having a "this site gets an average of x Mixx votes" would make me happy too :)

    1. @nowsourcing I like that one. Adding it to our list.

      @mixx community: you guys gotta stop coming up with good ideas. we have no time ;-) j/k

    2. @Kerry

      Would so much help if we didn't have to go thru the Categories and Communities one by one (via drop down menu) after submitting or re-Mixxing Wish we could checkmark the ones we want to add. Would save so much time. An example is NY TIMES or CNN submissions. Unless you are on CAPTCHA status you have to fill in all the category and group info one by one after the automatic submission. It's a bit tedious! Other than that 2 thumbs up!
