Undo rather then warning
I really like the sandy web interface. It does suffer from a common web 2.0 wart (well, actually, _lots_ of software does this) - the warning box. We get so used to just clicking 'ok', that we scarcely even know that we are doing it, until its too late. Then what we need is an undo.
I highly recommend this article at ALA:

I know its a pain to implement, but for your users (ME! ;) it just makes your already good interface that much better.
And who wouldn't want that?

Inappropriate?Depending on what you did that you want to undo, there may be record of the action so you can at least manually undo it.
If you click to the right of the search box in the upper right of the Sandy website, you get a chronological list of each item you have submitted (and I *think* even updated). You may be able to scour through this list to see what happened. -
Inappropriate?I don't see this - beside the 'search' box is a "drop-down" list with "sort and filter".
Regardless, its not that i want a solution to a specific problem (which, thankfully i haven't had yet), but i'd like to help the dev's solve a _generic interface problem_, and make the interaction better for all the users of the tool.
Thanks for the heads up about that button tho - i didn't see it there! -
Inappropriate?I just remembered reading about the following url:
http://iwantsandy.com/email
Which is a list of all your interactions (i think). -
Inappropriate?Awesome catch Jos. Do you know if that link is a clickable button anywhere on the site, or do I need to bookmark that specific URL?
-
Inappropriate?I don't know - i read about it here, so i think you will need to bookmark it.
