"Askville release notes for Thursday October 15, 2009. Any issues?"

Asked by AlexD 3 months ago

Details:

We're pleased to announce that tonight's release has some exciting new features:

* Five new Askville Achievements (Awards): Inquisitive, Informative, Acclaimed, Fans and the Askville Advanced Challenge -- each achievement has multiple levels of difficulty

* Completely revamped Achievements page (via My Askville) showing your current progress and providing the ability to sort your earned achievements

* New "mini profile card" that is available throughout Askville (click on a person's avatar to bring up the card) providing at-a-glance info and quick access to common tools

(Answers to this question will not be rated but comments on these features are encouraged.)

The new achievement awards/page look pretty neat.
The only bad thing about these is they show how lazy I am. :)

Interesting. Most of the awards look like they're
designed to get people back to answering in the Answer slots, rather than on the DB.

It's interesting. Kind of like a report card. Seeing
my achievements, I haven't felt like that since 6th grade! I have been here for three years...and am not impressed by my 'grades'. So, I guess I better get going on my homework.

(How many people have been here for four years?)

I have to wonder if this is a sign that Askville is
trying to go back in the direction of quality questions and answers by dedicated members, rather than a churning house for M-Turk Q&A to generate google ad hits.

I hope so.
