Ever feel like your fingers live on your refresh key? Refresh, refresh, refresh, waiting for a reply that you just know is coming... any minute now, naturally?
Well, here’s refreshing news: we’ve taken the work out of playing the waiting game (or dare I say put the fun back into it?). You now have a new way to (view/interact with) items posted on Multiply... live! Now when you view posts, you'll be able to see replies as soon as they're posted, similar to how IM or a chat room works. Follow the conversation as it happens. No extra clicking. No refreshing. No fuss. No mess.
You don't need to do anything to get this feature; we've gone ahead and enabled Live RepliesTM for you. This streamlines the process of posting replies; your reply appears instantly without having to wait for your browser to load the entire page again. And if someone else is viewing the same page, they too will see it as soon as it's posted!
While Live RepliesTM is a quick way to get the conversation started, replying to existing comments is done by clicking on "reply to this", where you'll find the usual range of options you're used to, such as quoting parts of, or subscribing to the post you're viewing, and spellcheck.
If that wasn't enough, now when commenting, you'll be able to resize the text box to fit your writing -- and not the other way around.
(check out the image below to see how).
If you find you prefer the old way of doing things (can't live without threaded mode?) don't despair. All of the views that you're used to are still available, only now there's more to choose from. You'll find the options on any content page, directly above the comment area.
So go ahead and choose the mode that's right for you; we find that things work better when you do.
