mathowie reported a problem in Threadless on July 01, 2008 15:04:
Bug: Logging in clears out your shopping cartI get the weekly emails of new designs, I often find 1 or 2 I like, and end up adding to my cart. When I hit checkout, I remember I should log in, since you have all my address details and my threadless points, but when I do, my shopping cart gets cleared out every time. Usually I quit, sometimes I go back and shop again for stuff, but I really wish Threadless worked like Amazon where stuff in your cart isn't lost when you log in at payment time.
I captured a short movie of this bug (and described it on my blog as well):
http://images.metafilter.com/threadle...
The first one shows adding to cart, logging in, then going to cart shows it is empty.
The second bit at the end shows a shirt in the cart, then logging in, and seeing the cart get emptied. I've noticed this bug for the last year or two and I think it'd result in a lot more sales if it was fixed.

This was answered on Ask MetaFilter earlier today. Turns out they are different artists that sold their stuff on iStockPhoto -- their names are listed in that thread I linked.

You can't take your number. So basically you have to decide how much your number is worth. the only way to hold on to a number is by paying the cancellation fee.
BTW, I found a website for Canadians to exchange their cell phone contracts: cellclients.com
I used them last year but I'm going to use them again when the damn iPhone gets here!

Hi Matt,
yeah definitely this is something we've discussed and been keeping in the backs of our minds trying to figure out the best way to go about it.
Right now we have private notes, and notes that act, as you rightly noted, as comments on a trip. Obviously, we have yet to find the perfect mix, but feedback like yours definitely helps us look in the right direction. :D

mathowie shared an idea in Dopplr on February 29, 2008 02:42:
Trip descriptions shown on a user's main page of trips?I'd like to see Notes on Trips exposed more. When I look at a friend's planned trips for the next six months, they may have 3 or 4 cities listed, and almost always there is 1 Note for each, describing what the trip is for, made by the user taking the trip.
Figuring out why my friend is going to be in my town and three other towns takes an awful lot of clicking, then clicking back, then more clicking just to see a single sentence that is most often like "visiting family" or "attending the $foo Conference". I'm specifically asking about adding information to a dopplr.com/traveller/$username page. I like to quickly scan that page for friends (it's my main interface to the entire site, surfing friends' profile pages) and know why they're going to be in town in a single glance.
Certainly, it'd be easy to just surface those short descriptions (even just the first 200 characters would be enough) on a user's home page of Trips, no? Basically if the first Note is by the same author as the Trip, then show the first x characters on their main user page along with the Trip information.
If promoting the first Note up on a user's page is too much to ask, I notice that "Notes" are used like comments in similar systems and maybe what I'm asking for is instead a standalone "trip description" field that is separate from Notes that could be surfaced for easy scanning of where and when (this would add Why) my friends will be traveling.
