[QUOTE=KmartSqrl;39523698]That's a bad idea too because if I am holding backspace to clear out a field I don't want it to bump me to the previous one, and not everyone is going to think to press backspace when they make a typo and see that they are focused on the next input field. You should let your users decide when they are done editing a field, not decide for them.[/QUOTE] It was just for a date of birth field, but yeah I get your point.
Working on building out my analytics stuff on spoonfed. Going to start tracking things like number of likes/dislikes per visit, visits per user, and frequency of visits for each user. I want to start to be able to figure out things like how likely someone is to end their visit after disliking products a given number of times in a row so I know when the best time to prompt them to change categories or keep going until we can recommend something for them. Data is fun :) [editline]9th February 2013[/editline] Getting a redis hard-on from working on this as well.
[QUOTE=Hideous_;39527809][img]http://puu.sh/1ZOOK/b73f3dedc2[/img] (excuse the jpeg compression, puush does that) Portfolio site! But I am terrible at web coding. And I don't even like it. But it has to be done. The idea is that the images will fade out and their containers will expand to contain more information about a particular portfolio item. Hopefully. I have never used jQuery.[/QUOTE] Aaaand it's done: [url]http://hideou.se/[/url]
I have a background that's transitioning colors, from hsl(0, 10%, 20%) to hsl(120, 10%, 20%) over 120 seconds. When you convert those values to rgb, you get rgb(51, 41, 41) to rgb(41, 51, 41). When using hsl values, it 'smoothly' steps from 0deg to 1deg to 2deg etc, one step per second. When using rgb values, it only steps 10 times in those 120 seconds. How does this happen? Afaik you can't have a pixel display rgb(50.9, 41.1, 41) [editline]10th February 2013[/editline] I'll just leave this here.

We've added "Related submissions" to Amuzor! [img]http://gabrielecirulli.com/p/Echoes_of_Silence_-_Ta_Prohm._Angkor%2C_Cambodia-20130210-190148.png[/img] [editline]10th February 2013[/editline] For example: [url]http://amuzor.com/submissions/167-echoes-of-silence-ta-prohm-angkor-cambodia[/url]
Just basing it off tags or titles as well?
[url]http://jsfiddle.net/Ek3dB/5/embedded/result/[/url] totally worth the 2-4 hours ([url=http://jsfiddle.net/Ek3dB/4/embedded/result/]github version[/url]) the sad thing is, I wrote the language thing for highlight.js, I didn't actually write the parser thing
[QUOTE=KmartSqrl;39540394]Just basing it off tags or titles as well?[/QUOTE] It's tags only right now.
Made a ton of progress on the analytics system I'm building for spoonfed yesterday. I'm tracking individual visits for each user (anonymous or logged in/guest users, you become a guest user in the db once you rate a product and then a registered user once you register), if you browse around the site and then log in your visits are properly reassigned to the user you log in as. I can track any arbitrary event by calling track_current_user_action(:action_name) from the controller (this is a rails app), or by calling User#track_action(:action_name). I'm going to add the ability to include a hash of whatever data I want as a second optional parameter to that function so I can do things like... [code] track_current_user_action(:pageview, url: '/products/12512') [/code] or [code] track_current_user_action(:like, product_id: 1252, selected_by: :recommendation) [/code] I'm not really doing anything to display the data yet, but it's all in redis in really flexible formats so I'll be able to do all kinds of cool stuff with it. Say I want to find the number of times a user has liked a product today. All I have to do is tell redis to give me the intersection of the set that contains all the actions for today, the set that contains all of the user's actions, and the set that contains all the actions that are likes, and then count the array. I can do that in one line of code. User tracking is fun! [editline]10th February 2013[/editline] [QUOTE=TerabyteS_;39541096]It's tags only right now.[/QUOTE] Do you guys do anything like analyze images and pull dominant colors out of them? It'd be cool if you did that and tied it to the related images somehow. Also, you guys should totally let people write descriptions for media that they upload. It'll have the potential to drive SEO a bit harder if you write good descriptions when you are uploading things :)
I was using this for generic forums: [url]https://github.com/charlotte-ruby/impressionist[/url]
I wanted to roll my own solution because it's going to be tied in to a lot of website automated optimization and split testing that I'm going to be doing as well. The way I'm doing it now is going to make it really easy for me to keep an eye on things like the average number of likes/dislikes per visit and I'm going to use that to automate some AB/split-testing on the site.

You guys need to create a few hundred fake accounts for Amuzor and then start snagging the top content off Reddit and reposting it. Not even kidding
[QUOTE=adamjon858;39543740]You guys need to create a few hundred fake accounts for Amuzor and then start snagging the top content off Reddit and reposting it. Not even kidding[/QUOTE] But do it manually so it's all legit!
They already do that but on a smaller scale :v: Also the soundcloud player on amuzor is annoying because the "share" button is gone so I can't copy a direct link to the song If you look at [url=http://amuzor.com/submissions/290-my-chillout-remix-of-zedds-clarity]my submission[/url] you'll notice theres like no way to go to the URL of the soundcloud submission, the closest thing is the click the name and go directly to the user page
You need to get yourselves into the ~cOnTenT_hIeRaRcHy~, it's just a matter of where... 4chan > reddit > 9gag > facebook > grandparents
[QUOTE=adamjon858;39543740]You guys need to create a few hundred fake accounts for Amuzor and then start snagging the top content off Reddit and reposting it. Not even kidding[/QUOTE]We have a few accounts and I post on them manually sometimes, but I kind of feel bad whenever I do it.
Have you guys seen this new moving picture? i found it on a webzone [img]http://media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lybnbeyQDh1qhcvgd.gif[/img]
[QUOTE=TerabyteS_;39543853]I kind of feel bad[/QUOTE] You've gotta be a ruthless and emotionless! Throw together a crawler for /r/funny that grabs imgur links and make it post to amuzor through a random account. Insta-success!
Currently we have a lot of people focusing on [URL="http://amuzor.com/submissions/167-echoes-of-silence-ta-prohm-angkor-cambodia"]a single submission[/URL] (around 10000 people have visited it in the last few days) because it got popular on Pinterest. We added related submissions because we were seeing that nobody was moving from that page onto the rest of the site. From the small amount of data we have so far (it's been up for less than 12 hours) I think it's helping a bit. Another field I think we're performing very poorly in is that of convincing people to submit something. I don't really know what is causing this (we see a lot of people register new accounts and then not do anything with them). I'm not really sure how we could improve this, one thing that comes to my mind is trying to guide users visually after they register towards the submit page, but I'm not sure it would work either. If anybody has any ideas in regards to this, I'd be glad to hear them.

I'm quite iffy about it but I think it would be a good idea, fake it till you make it.
