Neat idea, this could become a valuable resource for discovering interesting things.
From a UI perspective: Maybe there could be a searchbox for books, songs etc. so that one can quickly enter things one likes. With the current system of entering preferences for the 3 suggested items, the problem is that I don't know many of the items and so I can't enter a preference.
- jacobobryant 6y agoThere is such a search box. On desktop, click on "Add" in the sidebar. On mobile, you'll have to open the hamburger menu. There's also URL input for articles/content types I haven't added search for.
- julvo 6y agoThanks for the reply - that's great. I'm on mobile and looked for 'search', but now I see how to do it.
- jacobobryant 6y agoI thought about calling it "search" but went for "add" since that is technically more accurate with the URL inputs--and it's already a fairly common occurrence for people to enter search terms in those instead of URLs. Though your comment makes me thing that maybe I should just call it "search"...
- julvo 6y agoAnother option could be to add a search box to the landing page which when submitted takes you to the 'add' page
- jacobobryant 6y agoI'd thought about putting the search bar on the main page but wasn't sure how to make the UX good. It never occurred to me to just switch the page. I'll probably do that, thanks.
