I do miss the option of choosing the category "Forum", when linking URLs with a company or product. I do also miss some of the options available for a company at the product drop-down! Why do they partly miss there? Please add them there too.
Sorry, folks -- turns out that we have a bug in our system that causes some Web browsers to crash when there are a lot of replies to a particular topic. This Twitter topic has 347 replies already (!), and it's the first topic we've ever had with that many replies (!), and so we just uncovered this bug as a result.
Our dev team is working tirelessly to fix it, but it's a tricky one, and we hope to have something in place by the end of the day. We will report back with updates here as events warrant.
What about replacing the drop-down menus with check-boxes? Check-boxes let you see all available options at one glance and do not require that much mousing.
What about adding something like a "business visual mode" of GS - that is less colour, no avatars, compact threads, etc.
I happened to suggest to a long-established support forum to migrate to GS because of GS's numerous advantages but the guys there were reluctant to do so. They all agreed that the design of GS did not look serious, too much screen space was wasted, too much clutter. Unfortunately the design had made such a negative impression on them that they missed to see the plenty of useful features here on GS. (You can read the debate here: http://www.microsoft.com/office/commu...). I myself would prefer a more compact mode without avatars.
I'm just at the moment thinking about "how much" time and effort I put into Get Satisfaction in terms of ideas I share, questions I ask and problems I report (mainly all to your company, Get Satisfaction) and how many new companies, products and services I add. I'm not saying I'm "great" nor that I'm the one putting "a lot" (or the most) effort in here, but somehow, just the idea of a little "reward system" for doing all this stuff, came to my mind. Maybe just like the points you get on Yahoo! Answers.
Maybe in the long run you could work together with some larger, "richer" ^_^ firms (which of course also joined GSFN and are present here) and set-up a reward system including real reward points like...(I don't know what's there in the USA, UK and AU, but here we do have e.g. "webmiles", "Payback" and "Miles & More")... frequent flyer points for example or any other loyalty program reward points...
For the process: You could track:
* Answers given
* Answers given, that were marked "one of the best points" / "this solves the problem"
* Bugs reported
* Ideas contributed
* Ideas contributed, that were implemented
* Companies and products created (don't know if it would be possible to also track down if you added single elements?)
I am a developer of Greasemonkey extensions to enhance the Flickr experience. All of these are open source. Some other developers in the Flickr community provide other scripts, usually open source too.
The scripts are usually standalone and could be seen as "products". However, there is no "company" behind these productions. The community is loosely centered around the Flickr Hacks group on Flickr, but there is no real lead or centralisation in the effort.
I was wondering if I could register "Flickr Greasemonkey Hacks" as a company on Satisfaction and add individual scripts as product. To allow a simpler follow up of problems, ideas and questions about the tools provided.
I know Ghostbusters warned us against cross the streams (although they did just that to rid us of the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man, but I digress)...
It'd be incredibly helpful to be able to cross/merge/join conversation threads so that we don't have to drop in a "Take a look over here: ..." link every time someone starts a new topic without taking a gander at the existing ones.
On a related note, you might include the tiny-url you do in the [Twitter] dialog box in the regular view too as cross-linking topics with longer URLs results in some of them getting chopped off. What would be ideal, of course, would be a "Cross-link to ..." text-field where you can type in a search and have it cross-link automatically for you.
That said, having a permalink/tiny-url for each and every response would be useful given that sometimes the thing you want to reference is a response way down the list under a particular topic.
So, to sum up, I'd love some way to cross/merge topics and also a permalink of some sort for each topic and each post within that topic.
Is it just me, or is that a completely pointless spinner graphic that displays and disappears after a few seconds of clicking on "You" every single time? :)
I just got this account and i don't know how, i didn't sign up for it but i got it. and i have like 70 followers i don't know them or where they came from. can somebody tell me what's going on here. like who are these people fallowing me? and how did i get this account? and what is this account all about?

Hi
I want to integrate the API fully in my e-commerce website, but I want to know if the API can be integrated with the website developed in ASP.NET?...as i've seen its libraries are available in PHP or Ruby...Plz comment on that, I really liked the Idea and can't wait to see it working on my site.
I've started looking into the Getsatisfaction API and before I really have one of our programmers dive into it, I was hoping to get confirmation on whether I can do what I want to do with it.
Basically, I want Getsatisfaction.com to host all the questions and discussions regarding my company. But I would like them to be able to have access to all of Getsatisfaction's functionality from WITHIN my company's website. Can the API be used to do this? I've seen the buttons for "Put a topic widget on your website," but I want people to be able to actually participate in the discussions (post new topics, replies, and sign up) from within my website as opposed to just reading them.
