Maybe I’m late to the party, but am noticing quite a few features on Sphinn that I hadn’t before (ie. "Latest Comments" and "Top 10 Most Sphunn in What’s New" in the sidebar there, the option to "Save" a post now). All in all, welcome additions, so thanks Sphinn!

@burgo and @planetc1 - glad you like the new features! We’re striving to continue to add features and make updates for the community. You’ll see some more changes in the next couple of weeks that should make regulars here *very* happy. Stay tuned!

I love the new features. Why not add the ’Top 10 Most Sphunn in What’s New’ section on all 9 Upcoming pages as well? Since there’s more than enough sidebar space and it doesn’t add much clutter, it might be a good idea to include it in order to give these stories maximal exposure. Definitely looking forward to more new changes, Michelle. :)

In the "Latest Comments", perhaps an additional row for each comment with the name of the post that was commented would be useful.

@DoshDosh - ask and you shall receive :-) @sza - i’ll add that the feature request list - probably won’t be adding that right away@sebastian - yes! the new spam fighting features will be a huge help in keeping the site clean. @Jill - I plan on releasing the next wave of features in 2 weeks so hang tight and thanks for all your input and spam reporting in the meantime.

Are there any changes coming that will address the overall latency of the site?

Michelle - maybe you can recruit Matt to fight spam on Sphinn (in his spare time :)

@MattCutts - I hear ya - seriously :-) And I don’t know if you noted a comment about it on another thread here, but spam that is removed is now completely removed - no more gaming the RSS, comments, or Pligg’s (mis)management of discarded/deleted items. That didn’t sparkle. @Floppy - thanks so much! @g1smd - you didn’t notice a significant improvement around about 6 weeks ago? Our benchmarking found a 500% improvement. But we are continually modifying & tweaking the platform - oh, and growing - so we are mindful when adding features, and keeping an eye on it overall. You should see another slight improvement in a week or so.@charlieanzman - not unless he agrees to wear boots and a cape. It’s all about the boots and cape. And you’re funny thinking he has spare time. ;-)
