Me 2!

And I would also love if you added a small feature that reveals in the icon of people if they are already my friend. When I search zaadsters for likeminded peeps I get this long list of icons and names, some of which I recognize from before. Because they are already on my friends list or for another reason? I don't know. To be sure I have to manually check my friends list against the search list. Not very efficient way of doing it. Would it be possible to have an indication of our friends among all the zaadsters - a thicker frame around the icon, a colour, something? Some icons are gold, and I have drawn the conclusion that it is an on-line indicator, so some kind of indication of icons is already in the system.

My 2 cents,
Fixie

How about more Friend Management options?

I am sure many if not all of us are experiencing the positive and sometimes even overwhelming overload of information coming to you/us from friends, pods, and 'strangers' alike. (Myself included :)

What I propose is that we do have a better friend and member management system here at zaadz technologywise, where we can designate a closer circle of friends by interests, geography or else AND still keep our larger network of acquaintances/friends without having to sacrifice one for the other…

Also adding the ability for private notes and/or comments on friends icons/profiles will be very handy as well for things like real names, b-days, faves, etc.

That will certainly help us interact and communicate better and will affect the inevitable wave of 'unfriending' that may come otherwise.

I am sure you are already working on this and we would love to help in ANY way,
Take Joy and Godspeed,
