So I bet you guys are wondering what we actually do here @ Pikchur besides drink beer and watch Diggnation? Well, we eat cake, oh and release features from time to time.
Some of these delightful treats include
- Friends / Followers
- Edit Pik Data
- Activity Stream, a stream of activities of you and the people you follow (Piks, Follows, Comments). The Activity Stream can be found in your dashboard. :)
- Upgraded comment system.
- Optimized API
- Optimized Pikchur Message Queueing System
- And much more (you’ll just have to look closely)
….
Here is a more detailed look at some of the features from the list:
Friends / Followers / Activity Streams
You can now follow and have people follow you back on Pikchur.
Follow your friends Public Pikchur activity, Piks, comments, and new followings.
We also made our comments a lot smarter! Now when you leave a comment on a Pikchur, a link back is included as well as the option of embedded @’s to services that don’t support threaded conversations (or have limited support for them). This eliminates out of context status updates.
So for example , I send a pik, (@Orical) and you leave a comment of “Nice pik”, we will, if enabled add the @Orical Nice Pik <link back> to your outgoing comment. This pretty much eliminates all out of context conversations.
….
There are a bunch of more features we just added, so come join us!
