New look Chowk

Posted: Jul 16, 2007 Mon 10:53 am     Views: 177    Interacts: 0

Chowk Staff,

Thanks for the new look Chowk! Is it possible to retain the feature by which we could limit the number of responses in a viewing window. 2 reasons:
1) On slow connections, threads with too many responses/memory-consuming embeds like pitures would take a long time to load.
2) In modern age, attention spans are short. Clicking on next gives one a feeling of forward movement even while remaining on the same topic. It would be difficult to retain interest and labour through all interacts when all responses load in a single window. Besides, seeing the vertical scroll bar get diminished so much is very intimidating.

Not sure if I missed this feature, but I still can't see an editor for writing interacts/iLogs. The use of tags inside the post is an archaic feature which must be done away with and users should be provided a normal editor ASAP. This shouldn't be asking for too much given your inclination to keep pace with Web 2.0 :)
