I really like this, so here are my suggestions:
1. When a user joins, if their email address doesn't match an existing school, immediately prompt them for what their school is. It took me some head scratching to realize I had to add my school.
2. When I try to join a school, don't give me an error saying "fill out your profile first", let me fill out the profile at that time and show my school as selected. This part confused me.
3. Your form validation must die! I put in Dec. 2008 for graduation and then it spit back "must be 4 characters", consider putting something in parentheses to let me know this and shrink the width of the field.
4. Consider letting folks add links to their personal homepages, facebook or linked in profiles.
Good idea, I only point all this out because I like it enough to care.
- breck 18y agoAwesome feature! I wish I had it while I was at school. Probably would have made some great connections. It would be great if someone could add this functionality to the core site. Maybe someone who's name starts with P and ends with aul?
- jmtame 18y agoall very good suggestions. i can probably implement this mid next week (we really, really like homework at illinois.edu). on a side note, if any fellow hackers want to help me with this project, shoot me an e-mail (jtame2@illinois.edu). cheers.
