I have just seen the new item that has been added to the system that Kristian mentioned yesterday would be being added and it looks great. The new "What My Friends Are Doing" feature looks good and is not intrusive. This will help us to track what our contacts are doing. if you click the red x it will close the floating window if you want to show it again there are two ways to do so. 1. it will appear next day automatically 2. If you want to activate it again before the next day go to "My Account" and you will see "What My Friends Are Doing" This is located just to the right of how many contacts have added you into their contact list, just above the green "Invite Friends" image.

Well, I'm going to stick my neck out here and say I don't like it.
I find it really intrusive though I admit it's handy to see what everyone is up to. But it gets in the way when I am trying to read discussions.
Is it not possible to just minimise it, so we can check it when we are not busy reading somethign else?

Hi Laura Elrod,

That's a great way to see who is online also. So many times I'd like to chit chat with someone here, and don't have a yahoo id, or email. Thanks Apsense for another great idea!!

You can also quickly adjust font size by holding the "Ctrl Key" while scrolling your mouse wheel up or down...

Hi Laura,

The text is small in my "What My Friends are Doing" dialogue box also... but if I increase the font for the page... the print increases in the box as well... just go to View in your browser and it should be there to click on...

Your parameter "marquees1" initiated failed!

I'm glad I'm not the only one getting that message. I was getting it as soon as I came to the page and every time I clicked on a link. Thank God it has stopped now since it was pretty annoying.

O yeah, I see it. But I guess it's a bit disturb. I would prefer the online notification or maybe a chat feature instead. Because I don't like a pop up windows.

Hi Bj

I love coming online to APSense and seeing what everyone is doing... that's a great way to start my time here!

but lately I've been getting this message after I close the feature/

yellow triangle with exclamation point... message box!

The page at http://www.apsense.com says:

Your parameter "marquees1" initiated failed!

Did I post a comment/reply here before? I don't see it?

The new feature works great in FireFox. It's 4:50am here and am about to go to bed. I sat staring at it, wondering if my eyes were playing tricks LOL. I had to blink a few times to get my eyes to focus right. Yup, it's real. *grins* Thank you for a neat addition.

Same as Beth, I have a problem with this new feature. But I only have a problem if I browse Apsense using Mozilla and tried with IE, and there is no problem with this feature with IE. Can this be improved?

Thanks
