Vamos a arreglar eso, no te preocupes.

Santiago Siri replied on April 24, 2009 20:48 to the problem "Response time is too big!" in Popego:

Hi patin...when does the waiting time happen to you? When you log in or when getting an Interest Feed (a general one or for a specific time)?

What browser are you using? (I think I know the answer for this one ;))

Santiago Siri replied on April 13, 2009 22:28 to the question ""Popegos like ..." doesn't filter well" in Popego:

Mmh,.. seems like a minor bug.. let me see if I get you right: Your Popego appears in the list of other "Popegos Like You", right? That should be easily fixed.. but you can't say Popego isn't right :)

Santiago Siri replied on April 06, 2009 17:03 to the question "How do I add friends on Popego?" in Popego:

Hi Flavin, currently we don't have the "follow" functionality but we are working on improving some aspects of our architecture to enable that on Popego. Thanks for letting us know your need for this feature :)

Guys, please do it this way.. it doesn't make sense!

Glad to hear that!

Hi Hendrik, the developers informed me this was a bug in one of our libraries. It should work fine now. Please let us know.

Santiago Siri replied on March 18, 2009 23:13 to the question "Can't add Flickr account" in Popego:

Brian, we recently found out that we had a little bug with the Flickr API, so we are working on fixing that very soon. We are sorry for any inconvenience.

Santiago Siri replied on March 18, 2009 23:11 to the question "my profile completeness is stuck at 71%" in Popego:

Kevin, have you made all the required steps? We found out lately that we had an issue with our mail server, so maybe you didn't got your confirmation mail. Anyhow, don't worry about it. It's not required to have a 100% profile account in Popego.. as long as you created an Interest Profile that represents you, you will get great recommendations from Popego.

Santiago Siri replied on March 18, 2009 23:08 to the question "Why can't I add my livejournal feed to my web services?" in Popego:

Hi Hendrik. We should be able to properly support RSS Feeds. Maybe if you login now, you will fiend your livejournal feed connected (sometimes it takes a while). Otherwise, there's clearly something not working right and we'll implement that fix asap.

Thanks for letting us know.

Santiago Siri replied on March 02, 2009 21:18 to the question "A bit confuzzled at how Popego works.." in Popego:

1) Here's an idea that I think you'll like:

When you click "once" on the "Like" button, it tells popego "I want more stuff like these" and the button changes its text to a "Fave it".. so if you click again, it will go to your favorites.. With 2 clicks, you fave anything.

We removed the "Fave" button to avoid confusion. Clicking the "Like" really improves user experience on Popego and we wanted to increase the use of that button. But yes, I have a huge lists of favorites myself (santi.popego.com).. the key would be to properly sort your favorites based on your Interest Match with them.

But I like the 2 clicks idea.. as a matter of fact, I'm making a mockup on that as I write this.. lets see what happens.

2) To make them hidden between sessions makes total sense to me. We could make it work that way. A full refresh from the browser will bring the items back, but as long as you browse through Popego's ajax interface, those items could be hidden all the time until your next login. We'll test this ideas.

Awesome feedback man. I will keep this post bookmarked to discuss it with the team here. Consider Popego 100% at your service! :)

Hi Rambo, thanks a lot for your comments and questions! It definitely helps us understand better how you want Popego to be.

1) Simply click on "Like" on those items that you like :) They will appear on your list of Favorites. For the moment being, the "X" simply dismiss that item until you reload the list. The "Hate" button might bury that item forever. Though we still have to find the proper usability for this buttons. We don't want that you accidentally click on the "X" and then you don't get to see that item again..... what do you think is the best approach for this?

2) There's a little bug now that not all items you "Like" appear on your "Favorites" as it should.. but that will get fixed this week. We are working on a feature that will let you add any page easily to Popego... and even much more! So stay tuned about that.

The whole purpose of Popego is to give you the stuff (news, blog posts, videos, anything online) that is relevant to your interests. You don't have to search for anything, nor read tons of status updates or RSS feeds... Popego does all the online filtering for you and aims to deliver the best links that suit *your* interests.

We'll be deploying some exciting features by the end of this week. Do let us know what you think about the app.. at the end of the day, we want you to be very happy using Popego :)

Javi, we had an issue with our connection to Flickr's API. We will do a new deploy of Popego today, so please check if it works tomorow (Friday). Thanks a lot for letting us know this.

Santiago Siri replied on January 05, 2009 17:57 to the question "Widget gets logged out" in Popego:

Done! :) We are very sorry for the inconveniences this bug may have caused.

Santiago Siri replied on December 29, 2008 15:14 to the question "Flickr refreshing delay?" in Popego:

Hi, we are aware of that :) That's why we are working right now on improving the speed of our engine, and it's quite a complex task so it will take some time.
Thanks for letting us know about your concerns regarding Popego, it certainly help us a lot!

Santiago Siri replied on December 26, 2008 15:32 to the idea "Photos from Facebook too!" in Popego:

I use Facebook a lot too for pictures. But most users of FB want those pictures to be seen only by their friends... Anyhow, we still have pending to support FB on Popego.

To give a quick update: we are currently focusing very hard on the Artificial Intelligence, to improve our recommendations. Eventually we'll expand our support to other services. Thanks for the suggestion!

Santiago Siri replied on December 26, 2008 00:53 to the question "My profile completeness is stuck at 71%" in Popego:

Mmh, entre los mails de spam no estará?

Sobre borrar los tags, entra a Popego, y en tu "Interest Cloud" hace click en el tab de abajo que dice "Show Interest Settings" y arrastra ese tag a la caja gris. Ya vamos a mejorar la usabilidad de todo esto :)

Santiago Siri replied on October 29, 2008 16:16 to the problem "My widget does not provide access to linkedin or facebook information" in Popego:

Those features are work in progress. Thanks for letting us know this.

Santiago Siri replied on October 25, 2008 07:42 to the question "Is there a way to keep your page private & English Only?" in Popego:

In a few days (quite probably this Monday), you'll be able to filter your content by language. By default you will see stuff only in english and in your browser's current language (if it's different from english).
