I Want to Improve the Experience Project

Reviewing New Fans/friends Experiences

By: motseln2
Written on June 22nd, 2012
When I receive a fan notification I like to look through their list of experiences. This becomes a problem when they have more than 100 experiences - some have several thousand - and you don't have the time to review all in one sitting.  It would be helpful to have a dialog box where you can enter a starting "page" number so that you could continue reviewing when you have more time.  Presently you are forced to go in sequential page order after the first 5 pages.

    I look 1st @ the experiences I have in common with the friend request, then I might look through some of their other experiences to see if there may be other groups that I didn't know existed

    I also normally look at my fans' experiences. But I look at just the first several pages because I don't feel like going through all of the pages/experiences; lol. But your way is good. I think we need the ability to jump to a page on this site anywhere something is listed on several pages, when there are a lot of pages and we're going through the list. I think jumping to a page is not available at all on this site.

    This is a pretty cool idea ... I like your thinking here.

    What I usually do instead is look at the stories they have written. That gives me a sense of what's actually important to them.

    To help you get a quick sense of what's most important to a members, we give each member the option to select and feature the experiences that mean most to them. Once selected as a 'top experience' the experiences will appear on the very top of the list, when you're viewing someone else's page.



    We also show you a modules that reveals the mutual experiences you share in common.



    Since the experiences on each page shift as a member joins or removes themselves from experience groups, the page number isn't an ideal marker. We'll be discussing this with our developers to come up with a better bookmarking solution.

      Thank you for the response. Yes I realize that the list of experiences can grow or shrink over time. However, I would be very surprised that there would be a major change over the course of a day. If you have already reviewed pages 1-100 of 400 pages of experiences it would be helpful to be able to tell EP to start at page as a starting point. Yes the page 100 may not be exactly like it was when initially reviewing the list but at least you will be able to quickly get to page 101 to resume your review from there. Its not so much a bookmark as it is a means for rapidly navigating through the list of experiences that would be helpful.

      I agree with the writer; yes, the pages would change as stated, but typing in a page number still would be useful. Thank you, though. I would like the page-number feature available for going through the stories of a large group like this (which I have been doing for something) and going through one's circle list, also.
