I signed up for a StumbleUpon account nearly 3 years ago. Of course I lost the login details and ended up creating another account last year, which I then forgot about. Bernie was inviting people to connect with him earlier this evening, so I dugout the original emails…
While I can appreciate that StumbleUpon is free and useful it’s got some really annoying UI / “user experience” glitches.
Why does the main page invite me to “join” when I’m already logged in?
Why does the “invite friends” screen insist on sending emails to people instead of actually searching for them? There is an option to find people via their email address, but it’s well and truly buried.
The invite friends email isn’t particularly well crafted either. Instead of sending you to a page to join OR login it forces you to signup, so Bernie’s emails earlier this evening will probably have frustrated a load of other people (unintentionally on his part).
Jaiku has been offline for most of today, which is a pity. It looks like they’re having hardware or database issues again. Pity, as its interface is so much nicer to use than Twitter.
Travian UK have restarted server 1, so hopefully I’ll fare a bit better. I’m currently being slaughtered on the speed server 🙁
