So, then the question remains how do you choose the channels for the homepage of Netscape? Well, I think that has to be based on registrations. Things that people are most interested in are the things that they are most likely to vote and comment upon. So, if for some reason Art & Design is commented on heavily and people are registering for that purpose (a simple check-box in the registration area would do it) then that channel would move to the front and the much less heavily commented and registered on Religion would get knocked off.

They kind of have it set up this way now, but it is by channel not with several channels per page. Heck, you could even have it (now THIS would be cool) where the individual Netscape user (you have to register to make this work) could customize their own front page. That would cut down on some of the spam as well. I don't know, I'm just running off at the mouth with some ideas I've had.

Good question.

Another question and not just because I posted this. Why is this story not at the very top of the Netscape anchors recommend list? Further, why are they not touting it and crowing about it like some of the addicts? If this were my company and not just my favorite site I would be blowing this up everywhere and pumping this story for all it is worth (which I am anyway). Yet, we have only four (I think) Scouts that voted for this story with no comments and nothing from the Anchors. Why is that? Are they not as proud as we are?

I don't know, but we have to promote the 'Scape and not just live here.

Wow...good read...enjoyed it!

Excellent is a better word that wow....so again wow excellent!

I can say no more--nor less--than to say the N-scape has become a part of daily life, a part that provides an ever-available place for that great gift, self-expression.

A hug for all!

Netscape pwn Digg. ;)

This place rocks but I need friends! Ya'll add me!

yup...count me in

This is too much of good stuff!

There must be something wrong somewhere...

I got it!

The anchors need better avatars!

Also, can these anchors do something about those comments that get narrower and narrower until they look like the string of a thong? How about staggering them evenly, so that they all look about the same width?

And how about giving us some tools for emphasis - such as Italics, Bolds, Underlines,... and yes, some color, too? How about emoticons?

And while I am on the roll, let me mention something about the rating scale. I think you guys should add two more ratings:

"AWESOME" and "FAIR".

OK~! Now that I have played my role of a skeptic, let me go back to the cheerleading squad!

Great job, Netscape! Great job, bloggers, posters and commentors! This has to be the best place to share ideas and do something worthwhile!

I bet you most of my friends here would feel lost if we couldn't get on line here for a day!

Peace and Blessings!
