Blog safely! A new "autosave" feature and other site improvements|Blog安全啦！新推出的”自動保存”功能和其他改進

[ 繁體中文本]    [ 简体中文本]

Admin has been a BUSY BEAR! We've been cooking up a bunch of new improvements and there are two features which I think will make your time on Alive Not Dead alot easier.

First, we've setup a new "autosave" feature. If you've blogged for a long-time, then you know how frustrating it is to accidentally lose a blog entry because you leave the page or you accidentally delete stuff that you don't mean to. It's happened to me as well and it's really frustrating. As a consequence, we've added a new feature that will automagically save your blog entry every five minutes. This "autosave" feature will save your ongoing blog entry in your "drafts" folder where only you can access it.

The "autosave" is done quietly in the background while you're still typing so you don't need to do anything in order to have it work. Once you're done writing your entry, just click "Publish entry" and you're blog entry becomes public to everyone. If you DO happen to accidentally leave your blog entry without saving it beforehand, the blog system will stop you first and ask you if you REALLY want to leave without saving your changes. It works just like a regular word processor or like Gmail and hopefully it'll save you alot of frustration and lost time. If a bolt of lightning strikes your house and your computer suddenly shuts off, you can pickup from your last "autosave" point by going to My Profile => Blog=> Manage Blogs => Drafts.

So go forth and blog freely -- and don't worry about accidentally losing your wonderful blog writing because it's all "autosaved" to [alive not dead]. Do you like this feature as much as I do? Send your love to Eric for the great work.

The second feature I want to highlight will hopefully make it easier for you to search and find friends on Alive Not Dead. We've added new fields to the "Member Settings" page found under "My Profile" => "Settings" => "Member Settings".The new "Mobile number" and "Additional e-mail(s)" fields will make it easier for your friends to find you on [alive not dead].

You can provide your mobile number and any additional e-mails that you use (for instance, I have three emails that I've used in the past in addition to the one I registered on [alive not dead] with). This information is COMPLETELY private and NEVER shown to anyone else. However, people who know you can search for you using this information. Also, when they try to add you as a friend, they can verify that they REALLY know you by providing one of these pieces of information. This makes it easier for your REAL friends to add you in case they don't know your primary e-mail address. Thanks to Edward for adding the new fields.

Go now and try these new features out! If you see any problems, let us know in the Feedback and Suggestions forum.

Lots of fun and great stuff coming soon!

小編熊仔好忙啊！我們剛剛出爐了兩個新功能，可以讓大家把Alive Not Dead用得更方便。

第一，我們推出了新的”自動保存”功能。如果經常寫Blog，你一定知道不小心離開那個頁面或無意中刪掉寫好的東西時的那種痛苦失落。我就曾經這樣，非常心痛。所以我們推出了新功能，每幾分鐘自動保存你正在寫的Blog。”自動保存”功能會把你正在寫的Blog保存在”草稿箱”裏。

當你在寫Blog時並不需要打開”自動保存”功能，它在後台系統裏。一旦你寫完了，點擊”保存發佈”就發佈在你的空間了。如果沒有事先保存，要離開正在寫的Blog，系統會先阻止你，問你是否”真的確定”不保存就要離開，就象word或是Gmail的保存功能。希望這樣能減少你丟失文章的失落感和時間。如果有雷電擊中了你家或你的電腦突然斷電關閉，就可以從”我的空間”=>”Blog”=>”管理Blog”=> ”草稿箱”裏找到你的文章。

所以更隨意寫Blog吧—別担心你很棒的Blog會突然丟失，他們會”自動保存”到[alive not dead]。你也象我一樣喜歡這個功能嗎？給 Eric一些掌聲謝謝他的工作。Eric

第二個特別提出的功能，是為了讓你在Alive Not Dead更容易找到朋友。我們在”用戶設定”裏新添加了內容，在”我的空間”=>"用戶設定"=> "會員設置"裏，增加了新的項目”手機號碼”和”其他的電郵地址”，讓朋友更容易在[alive not dead]裏找到你。

你可以提供手機號碼和其他在用的郵件地址(比如我有3個郵箱，但我隻選擇了其中一個在[alive not dead]註冊)。這些信息當然是完全保密而且永遠不會讓任何人看到的。但是別人可以通過這些信息搜索到你。如果他們想要添加你為好友，可以輸入其中一些資料進行確認，這讓你真正的朋友更容易加你為好友，因為只有他們才知道你私密的郵箱地址。謝謝 Edward幫我們添加這個功能。

現在就去試用新功能吧！遇到任何問題，請到 ”反饋和建議論壇區”留言給我們。

希望你玩得更開心，我們還有好多有趣的新功能就要推出！
