Hi Matic,

As always excellent feedback - thankyou.  We're going to be pushing a lot of bug fixes out tomorrow, and a redesign in the next week.  Then we should see some pretty rapid iterations.

Just a heads up - we're changing some DNS settings at the moment.  You should still be able to reach beta.groupiter.com, if not try groupiter.com.  It's taking longer than i hoped to propagate through the interwebz.

- not being able to click on an image to open it in directory view is a pain

TS: If you have added a folder to groupiter, you should be able to open the image from the browse view.  Is this not working for you, or are you hoping to also be able to open files in folder that you have not added to groupiter?  Or perhaps you want to view images regardless of wether you have added the containing folder to groupiter?

- we'd really like a split view to compare versions. For example, we make v12 of the designs, then our designer puts the new versions in v13 folder. It would be cool to browse them side by side, along with comments, so we can compare the differences and see if all the comments have been taken into account.

TS: This is a great idea - we would like to be able to add this in the near future.

- missing a view of all the images in a folder that includes the subfolders

TS: cool idea

- moving through files straight from the view (left & right arrows for browsing), including keyboard shortcuts

TS: really cool idea

- don't send me emails that I commented on a file, I know I did, send them only when someone else did

TS: we'll get this out asap.  We're also about to push daily digest emails.  

Cheers,

t

Hey Tim,

we've been using it for a while now, comes useful but there's also still some frustrations.

Let me know if you'll be updating the Beta anytime soon.

Hi Matic,

I just wanted to check in - how's using groupiter going?

We're busy redesigning the site at the moment and it's coming along well.  I can't wait to share with you.

Cheers,

Thanks Tim, it's awesome. Groupiter is coming in really handy. 

We're doing well at Toshl, in fact we're just starting to design a Toshl sister app for fuel-ups and that's what we're using Groupiter for. 

I've noted down some quick comments from my first day of use. Just random stuff that came to mind, I'm sure you're already aware of most of them, but perhaps you'll find a nugget or two:

Why arent discussions expanded by default?

When commenting, a file, don't count on everyone having a profile pic. Name on hover or next to the profile pic? Plus it would be cool if I could open their profile by clicking on the pic.

Arrows by moving between files to comment? A bit tedious to open, close, open, close… Perhaps also an X button for closing?

I'm missing edit on comments.

I'd like live refresh of comments when I have a file open (like on FB), so I don't have to refresh… (I'd also like a unicorn ;))

I was writing a comment while on timeline, because another person commented meanwhile, what I was wiritng disappeared.

Where is log in/out, change password?

Desktop notifications don't seem to work yet. Really cool idea though. I'm guessing it's OS X notifications? Would love that.

When browsing click on the image should open as well, not just the title. 

Best, Matic

Hi Matic,

Great to hear from you guys - I hope Toshl is going well.  

Chris mentioned that you'd like to take Groupiter for a spin - I would love to have you aboard and hear your feedback.  

Groupiter is coming along well.  We did some great refactoring of the code since 500, and now we're refining the UX and adding some features.

I'm going to send you an invite now.  Our new user experience needs a little love, so please don't hesitate to get in touch if you have any questions, issues, or find bugs.  We're here to help :)

All the best,

Tim
