Grabbing new users attention
Introductionary scren (wizard) explaining the key points of bc...how to add people how to follow, how to create a group etc
will probably encourage more users to use BC straight away ass opposed to lurking around for a few weeks not knowing what to do.

Inappropriate?That is a damn good idea.
I've seen several users in the past few months that were from Bremen like be but they never did anything. I tried to follow them but nothing came from it.
With a decent introduction this could change (maybe with small animations to show directly what is meant to be done - pictures always work better then a thousand words. So small animations must be even better) -
Inappropriate?From what I can tell, most new users need a while to figure out, that there are 4 different tabs. So they pick one channel, when they start bc for the first time and if that's a currently dead channel or it doesn't interest them, they don't find their way back to the channel menu and give up.
Got 3 ideas:
1. explain the 4 tabs in the 'welcome-message', that every new user gets in their personnel channel
2. also tell new users in that message, that their is a help menu
3. translate the help menu
Of course graphics or animations would work even better -
Inappropriate?guys - this is an issue which really depresses me and which I think we can get much better. On the one hand we have mega-dedicated users (you know who I am talking about), and on the other we have people who never "get-it".
We're doing two things to improve this that will come out in the next couple of days:
1. users start off in the "nearby tab" and only move to the "following tab" once they are following users.
2. introduce-o-matic: this is a trial system that will run on the buddycloud servers. When a new user signs up, introduce-o-matic will look at new users signing on, find the three closest *and* online users, and then send an request to follow. At this point, both the existing user and the new user can then decline this request, but we're hoping that it helps create that initial "connection" that then gets the user up and running. The new user will then see that the existing nearby user has "status", "previous, current and perhaps next place" data and a channel. At that point they should see that there is something to this. And hopefully have someone nearby and speaking the same language. It's a trial and we'll watch it carefully to see if it helps.
I’m introduce-a-licious
