Pooln Updates and Additions
posted by Ben Engebreth on 04.09.2005
Time (past time actually) to summarize some new additions over on the carpool matching part of the site. The biggest thing that I've got going in the last week or two is RSS feeds. Right now you'll notice them when you login to your Pooln account and look at your user profile. In the beige box (only visible when logged-in) you should see a link to a feed for all Pooln users who live and work in the same zip codes as you do. With this you can always keep an eye on the new people coming online that could be good for you to carpool with. I'm also going to add RSS capability to the location browsing and user browsing in the near future so watch for that.
Other than that, I've should point out these other things before I forget about 'em:
- Put ALT tags on all images
- Tried to make link/hover style more consistent so that links are easier to see
- Added friend and foaf (friend of a friend) labels on profiles and carpool search listings so you users can see relationships better
- Decided to not mention additions of things regarding code in this list (e.g. creating new classes, cleaning up code/HTML) -- it's just not that exciting
