Screen-by-screen: leave comments
On the experimental development site about3findout.com, anyone can leave us comments via the comments box on the bottom of almost every page. The video (made with Jing) shows you how.
Transcript:
Hello World!
My name is Bert and in this video I'm going to show you how you can comment on the development of the about2findout.com project. We need you to tell us what you think of it, and to tell us about bugs, inconveniences, any suggestions, or even just to tell us we're good.
The experimental development site is actually called about3findout.com. On the very bottom of almost every page you will find a section where you can view and add comments.
Let's try it. Type in any text in the box. If you are reporting a bug on the page, be as specific as you can. Note that you can only type in normal characters. If you are an anonymous user, you will also have to fill in the code you see on the picture. If you are logged in to the site, you just have to press the button. We do this to prevent spamming from web robots. As a side note, sometimes the code will be considered wrong due to partial page updates. The best way to leave anonymous comments is to refresh the page and type in the comment before doing anything else on the page.
But also if you don't want to leave a comment, you can help us by deciding on what's important and what's less important. For every comment you can vote and give it a 'thumbs up' or a 'thumbs down'. Comments that get a lot of thumbs up will be higher in the list. That way we will know what you find most important. Anonymous votes count for a little less than votes from registered users, so make sure to sign up for a free account!
Happy commenting!
