CP Team,
I just observed the new feature mentioned at the bottom of the forums
Use Ctrl+Left/Right to switch messages, Ctrl+Up/Down to switch threads.
I believe this should be a significant step towards making the site more accessible through the keyboard.
One quick thought: When you are in the topmost thread or bottommost thread, isn't that a debatable one on whether it (ctrl+up/down) should jump to the next message's (predecessor or successor) thread or cycle within its own message realm?Vasudevan Deepak Kumar

I don't think cycling is all that intuitive.cheers,

I was going to post this earlier today but didn't do that out of respect for VDK. But now that you've posted it anyway, yeah it's been available for months now. VDK is behind the times.

When I read some posts of VDK, Flo Rida's lyrics come to my mind:

Rajesh,
We do have a related Tamil saying too in this context right? BTW, an Out of Topic query -- how is your travel prep to Seattle going? Is your contact number changed?Vasudevan Deepak Kumar

Will reply to you later in private about that.

Months? I've been using it since I signed up. That must have been about two years ago.

I can assure you that it's longer than that. I remember starting to use it sometime after I signed up.

I admit. Either I wouldn't have observed it and hence it presented as something new to me.Vasudevan Deepak Kumar

CP Team,
I was just wondering if adding a Smart-guesser feature along with the message type that would automatically guess the type of the message on clicking the submit button.
For most of the question type sentences, I feel that the engine can do the best work of choosing the 'question' radio button. For Joke and Rant, it may have do some little text parsing (using AJAX tricks) and then suggest to the user. Perhaps it can try to use any of the smileys embedded in the post.
I feel that this would reduce the number of messages piled up under 'General' and provide more finer classification of the messages and also add a bit of interactiveness to the forums.Vasudevan Deepak Kumar

Write us a prototype and we'll be happy to test against real world data.
The message boards already default to 'Question' for new posts, and 'Answer' for replies to questions. Extending the guess beyond that will provide mixed results at best.cheers,

I admit. Perhaps, there can be a section like CP Labs where we can test-them over a period of time to see they mature enough to be production candidates.Vasudevan Deepak Kumar

CP Team,
I would like to bring to your kind attention regarding an inadvertant typo that seemed to have crawled into the caption of this week's survey. It currently reads as
As a software developer, which of the following <big>woud</big> you consider yourself
The word would seems to be misspelt as woud. It has been cross-verified against Google Dictionary [http://www.google.co.in/search?hl=en&source=hp&q=define%3Awoud&meta=&aq=f&oq=[^]].Vasudevan Deepak Kumar

I didn't publish most of my blog posts to CP for the simple reason that I didn't think the posts would pass as articles, mainly because they are rather snippets (e.g. http://www.hardcodet.net/2010/02/blocking-httpwebrequest-getresponse-for-silverlight[^]).
However, seeing there's a dedicated section for this kind of content on CP: What would you think about having the option to publish our posts to Tips/Tricks section instead?

Hello,
I think there should be category on Message Board for Microcontroller programmer (embedded system programmer) so they can talk about issue relavant to various Controller and compiler.
if already exist, forgive me.
and please tell me.
Thanks

Hi Chris,
After an article is edited by the CP team, the article can no longer be modified using the wizard and hence we need to go through the whole process of getting its html, firing up an HTML editor, doing our modification, previewing in the browser, sending an email and then waiting for our turn so that a CP editor updates our article.
How about letting the user modify the article as before (using the wizard/CP editor) with the only difference that the changes may not be reflected immediately, unless a CP editor approves it?

Excellent! My laziness and not wanting to assemble the email is one (of many) reasons I haven't updated my articles. I'm glad to hear this is on the roadmap.
