brand spanking new

the all new tenning.com design and features have launched. yes, it may be a bit buggy still, so please leave me a note if you find any.

hope everyone enjoys. more things are on the way as well...

the countdown is on...

in 3 days i'll be 24 and tenning will be 2.0. see you there.

So uh...

...yeah. Sorry for slacking lately. But don't you worry, a brand-new, way better tenning.com is now in the works. It may take a while, but the gears ARE turning. More about it soon.

break out the champagne!

We made it to over 500+ lists! Pat yourselves on the back. And that's
just the start....

This week is the start of a new feature called 'tenner of the week.'
I created a SUPER SECRET, HIGHLY COMPLICATED FORMULA that I'll crunch
at the end of the week to announce the victor. So bust out with the
best content you can! The 'week' for 'tenner of the week' will run
every Sunday morning through Saturday night. So the lists created in
the last day will count towards this weeks contest.

More features are on the way as well, as soon as I have reliable
Internet and some free time...

any of you tenners have blogs?

if you do, lets links swap. send me an e-mail and we'll set it up.

weekly contest

Today I'm starting a weekly contest. Well, at least
trying one... :

Whoever can create a tennbend list with the most 'tenns' wins! So
start digging through some older lists and find one that inspires
you. Remember, a tennbend can be the exact same topic, or a complete
reinterpretation or remix of a list. Right now, the prize is a
'tenner of the week' link on the top menu bar and (if you want it)
your very own tenning.com e-mail address. Not very exciting to many,
but you still get bragging rights! The contest ends at 7PM PST on
April 2nd.

I would love some feedback on what you'd like to see in future weekly
contests and what other kinds of prizes would make it worthwhile.

user profile revamp!

i just finished a big revamping of the user profile. i'm trying to put more of an emphasis on the user profile as a mode of navigating the site. everyone's varying personalities is what really makes a tenning list interesting anyways, right? now its easier to find more lists and users with them. here are the changes-

-now when you log in, you will be automatically directed to your profile.
-now it shows all of your lists on your profile, instead of only your most recent lists. because of this, i have removed the 'my lists' link in the menu.
-your buddies have been moved to the right of your lists, to make your profile more compact, and much shorter. also, i removed the 'my buddies lists' menu item because it was a bit confusing, and now you can more easily find your buddies lists from your profile.
-if you don't have tenning points or any lists, you won't see a title for them. not a big deal, but it cleans things up.
-'my subscriptions' has been moved to the profile. instead of hogging a menu item, you can manage your subscriptions by clicking the 'my subscriptions' tab on your profile.

and again, your profile has much friendlier address now. for example, mine is 'http://tenning.com/user/justin'. just replace my username with yours!

these are a lot of changes, i know. i hope it doesn't shake things up too much for you all. if you would like to see any other changes, or reverse one, please let me know.
