Protected Posting on Universal Inbox
Whenever you post a protected post, those who are in your protected list should be notified in the universal inbox. -
Achievements!
Basically how this would work is XangaTeam would reward Xangans for certain things they achieve. For example: Xangan posted 250 weblog entries. That particular Xangan would recieve 250 credits for that achievement. Same goes for the pulses and other various things you can come up with XangaTeam. =] We all need a little easier ways to gain credits, if we do the work for them, why not allow us to do it!? =] Thanks! -
Get rid of the new editor
It's ugly, it has four buttons, and everyone hates it. Please just give us the OPTION of using the old editor past January. -
Credit Transfers
Do you have more than one Xanga (or revelife, datingish, etc.) account and want to be able to transfer credits from one to the other, and not have to use minis and only get a fraction of your hard-earned credits? This idea will also make it easy for contest sites to give credits to winners, instead of having to use Minis. -
Xanga needs a BlackBerry app...
If I want to check on my xanga blog, comment or post from my BlackBerry, I have to use the browser and it is nearly impossible...very frustrating. There's a BlackBerry application for Facebook and so does MySpace...so why can't there be a mobile version of Xanga? Who else wants to blog on the run? -
Re-Unify Xanga
I thought Xanga was a blogging community encompassing a variety of topics. But now it seems like moms, Christians, gossipers, and folks who care about money, dating, or their health are supposed to go to these new "sister sites." Why can't we just have one big Xanga community like the "good old days?" -
Using Control-B/I/U in Editor
I sometimes hit control-B in the editor, which triggers my bookmarks sidebar. It'd be great if these keyboard shortcuts (control-B, control-I, and control-U) all worked in the Xanga editor! -
No-Block Mandatory Ratings
We all know the current rating system is faulty. I propose a rating system that would not block any pages, but would rather post identifying code letters beside the title of a post in a user's universal inbox. Perhaps "P" for profanity, "S" for sexuality, "EP" for explicit photos/video. Nothing would be blocked, and users would still be in complete control of what they see, and could make informed decisions about what content to view. The Xanga team would be responsible for complaints of abuse. -
Sync Pulse and Twitter
We can automatically post our Xanga weblogs to Facebook, so let's do the same with Pulse and Twitter! -
Friend Requests
I think if someone friend requests you and they have a "friends lock" on their site, the lock should be lifted b/c they're trying to add you and personally, I like to know who I'm adding before I add them. I guess you could always just defriend them after if you don't like what they write about, but this would make things easier. -
Option to turn off auto-play music
I am not fond of some people's music blaring when I visit a new site; in fact, I will immediately leave the site when I hear it. Like most people, I have MY music playing on my computer already, and more music is not better. Please add an option in the basic settings panel to turn off auto-play. -
More E-mail Inbox-Like Universal Inbox
The ability to delete items from the Universal Inbox that you've already read (or don't wish to read); the ability to see the difference between items you've READ versus UNREAD; ability to "save" items you want to go back and read at a later time -
De-recommend a Post
As opposed to "un-recommend." There should be a quick, simple option to un-click the "Heart+" icon in the event someone accidentally recommends a post. This is also helpful for those who wish to de-recommend a recommend upon further reading. This is NOT asking for negative ratings ability but simply to move the recommendation back to "neutral." -
Better Unsubscribe
Let us unsubscribe right from the user's page instead of having to dig into our subscriptions list. Also, make it a checkbox format, so that we can do it en masse when the time comes for spring cleaning. Notifications for trial subscriptions that are about to expire would also be helpful. Thank you! -
Moods and Status
Like other blogging and networking sites, I think Xanga should have a feature that allows you to explain your Mood with a Smiley or some sort of small avatar. And your Status of that Mood. Such as this: Mood: (insert animated smiley of choice here) Status: Sle21408- "is feeling like the most wonderful thing is just around the corner waiting for me to come for it!" I honestly believe that people enjoy these little features! =] -
Calendar for Pulse
Don't know about you but I use Pulse for most of my quick, "what I'm doing right now" kind of posts. Yet the only way to go back and see, for example, what I was doing a year ago, would be to scroll back, page by page. I think it would be really nice to have a Calendar on every pulse page so that previous pulses would no longer be lost to history. :) -
SPAM Flag for Sites
Since the number of Xangas being created for the sole purpose of Private Messaging real Xanga users giving them links to teen porn-sites is on the rise and there's no way to directly report or flag such SPAM sites, I hereby call for a SPAM flag. -
Permission For Featured
I believe Xanga should have to ask the author's permission to feature them, much like Revelife, and the other "ish" sites do. Some of us don't want to be featured, and Xanga should have to ask us before putting our posts on the front page. If you agree, please vote! -
more interactive blogrings
I like livejournal's communities so much better than xanga's blongrings. There is no intra-blogring interaction. It's just a bunch of people who share the same interests, but we cannot post any community entries in the blogrings. Please implement some application for the blogrings so its members can communicate and post in the blogring itself and all members of the blogring can respond to each other in the blogring as well. -
VaneDave Sings Miley
VaneDave has promised he will sing a Miley Cyrus song on Xanga TV if we get 100 "Yes" votes on this idea. So if you want to see VaneDave sing a Miley Cyrus song vote "Yes."
