'Ask Neil' suggestions
Posted: Thu Jun 04, 2009 9:35 am
Hey there,
I just used the 'Ask Neil' section for the first time. I'm just starting to get my head around it and know that it will be useful the more I, and other people use it. However, the potential is there for this to just be a huge unorganized bucket that useful info gets lost in.
- Everyone is at different levels and has different questions for Neil. There are already 10 pages of questions- and I'm sure it's growing by the day. Someone might have already asked something I'm asking and I have no way of knowing without searching through 10 pages of comments. Is there a better way to organize it? By level? By category (beginner question/int. question etc.) Maybe Ask Neil could have it's own 'search' button? I don't know- just riffin' ideas.
- Second is I'm sure more people will use the 'upload video' option as they become more familiar with the site. Is it true that there's only 1 person that has done this so far?? Once that gets more popular, I'd like to see other people's videos listed separately so I can go there and see them all- not have to wade through all the text questions as well.
- Lastly, it's tough to know if Neil has responded to the question- or if it's another member commenting on the question. All that's there right now is a 'comment' button with the number of responses beside it. Can this be tweaked to know if Neil has answered yet or not?
Food for thought from a fan.
