Accept contact invitation feature does not work using email link

Dale Thompson — Wed, 28 May 2008 18:18:25 -0400

I received an invitation today for a contact with the link:

http://www.fastcompany.com/buddylist/nnnnn/buddies/requests, where nnnnn is the request number.

Selecting the link instantiates the fastcompany page, but the link contents are never displayed.

I also signed in to the site separately and saw 2 requests contact invitations, but could not view the profiles of those individuals.

cannot post to personal blog

Elizabeth Goldstein — Mon, 19 May 2008 15:31:44 -0400

I am unable to post anything at all to my personal blog (though I successfully created a group, a blog for that group, and posting to that blog). Whatever I type, today when I submit I get this message:

! blog : This post can't be referenced.

On previous days I got the message that I was suspected of being spam, but when I typed in the "captcha" and clicked submit, I got the above message. Today it just skips that step. Can anyone help?

Musings on th FC site

Martijn Sjoorda — Wed, 26 Mar 2008 06:42:45 -0400

Where is the "Post Comment" button?

How can I see/browse/search the member list of a group that I am part of?

Think user and listening, not push and talk.

Here's a story:

I got the paper FC in the mailbox yesterday. As always, I dove straight into it. I was touched by the passion about the new site and what you are trying to accomplish with it. So I thought: let's give them a chance.

I uploaded my contacts from LinkedIn. I see a list and a button that says: "Send Invitations"

How do you Delete a comment or Edit it?

Viv Ilo Veith — Sun, 24 Feb 2008 18:47:44 -0500

I posted a comment on an article that I immediately wanted to edit. (Now, I would just like to delete it!) I can see it on my profile but I see no where to edit or delete it.

Could someone on staff please help me with this? You are welcome to delete both my comments. I flagged them using the "Report Content" button but that was the only thing I could see to do. Thanks.

Site experience less than optimal so far

Rahel Bailie — Sun, 24 Feb 2008 14:33:50 -0500

I don't know if my experience with the new FC beta site is uniquely problematic, or if others are having the same problems, but I'm finding it frustrating enough that I can't see myself engaging much - if at all - with the community. I belong to a few social networks, run a couple of multi-blog sites, have a conference site that has a social networking component, and so on, so I'm not a newbie. On the other hand, I'm willing to concded if I've overlooked something obvious.

FastTalk subjects locked

m e — Fri, 22 Feb 2008 10:30:49 -0500

FastTalk topics are "access denied"

if they are about 2 days or more old...so it seems.

I understand that you dont want old ones modified after a certain point,

but hopefully you make them viewable.

In this case I was trying to see what all

was said about Web 3.0

Thamks,

Blog on content list doesnt show updates

m e — Sun, 17 Feb 2008 22:42:49 -0500

Blog on content list doesnt show updates.

It DOES show when a new posting is there.

It DOES NOT show updated version if on the showing posts

changes. (The version on MyFastCo page has the old version still)

*** Also, i am posting to the Group here...because

since I am a member of the testers, I dont get the normal

feedback screen

Thanks and keep it coming...

Now that the site is out of beta, we've converted this group as a place for site advisors and testers. We hope you'll continue to participate. We have been reviewing your suggestions and acting on many of them. If you haven't seen your fix make it to the site yet, it may be because our developers haven't yet gotten to it. They've literally worked all through the night several days in a row. We'll be rolling out new waves of changes every 48 hours or so. Many thanks, Ed Sussman, FastCompany.com
