Was Friday the 13th a Horror movie? It will be for all other directories, search engines and communities as Hedir is upgraded itself from Hedir 1.0 to Hedir 1.3 (a journey to reach Hedir 2.0 within next 3 weeks). I am sure I will not be able to forget this Friday, not because of the horror it will create for other platforms but because of joy. We have pushed ourselves really hard to do few things.

Friday 13.0 (Hedir 1.3.0)
Changed the look of the category, now we have links to more sections http://www.hedir.com/internet.html for example.
Quote:



Friday 13.1 (Hedir 1.3.1)
A wiki page for each category, lets take an example. I went to http://www.hedir.com/internet.html or and I saw three links here and one of it is KBase, Once I click it says
Quote:


This is a 404 page generate through wiki, a user can always create by clicking on the link which says “Create a new Page with the URL internet-communities/wiki.html”.

I click on it and it creates a page for me, a wiki to document the category releated information. All categories have forums with scattered information and this wiki will help us arrange it. Over to the community for testing.

Friday 13.2 beta (Hedir 1.3.2)
A story section for all the categories (it is not enabled for all categories). Users can request to enable the story section by clicking on the “enable story” button. By clicking the button it will create add a reply to the story request topic. Moderators and admins can enable it by clicking on the same button and once enabled a post will added to the request thread.

Quote:

Once the story is enabled we will have two sections, one Hot and another new. http://www.hedir.com/internet-communities/story/ (this is hot as it is running an algo to check to rank the stories) and http://www.hedir.com/internet-communities/story/new.html is listing the newest topic on the top of the list.

Here you can add a comment, vote, tag.

Friday 13.3 beta (Hedir 1.3.3, will take another 2 hrs to launch)
Tagging for all forum topics and special tagging feature for review forums.

I know more explanation is required for each section. I will be doing it with time. I need to check it thoroughly for errors.

Bret

That means Hedir is now a multi digg. that is very cool. Can we expect 200 times traffic of that of digg as we have 200 (or more) diggs under Hedir Very Happy .

Digg watch out, DMOZ watchout, wikipedia watch out.

I am doing some research on tags, I will forward you the papers. May be hedir can implement a special type of tagging and search engine for the first time. Tagging has a small problem and I am working on the improved version of tags.

HEDIR IS MORE POWERFUL NOW. IT ROCKS FOR SURE.

Yes we will have many story sections. we have allowed blogs, articles, news and misc under each section.

We will be better than Digg as our architecture is better, it is based on phpbb which itself is meant for participation and community. One of the challenges I have is to make the hot stories section the best, I have used user reputation, votes, views, comments, freshness into the account while ranking.

We will be having 4 algorithms,
One for news items (freshness will have more value), articles (will work like search engine, a social search engine), blogs (freshness and user feedbacks), misc (a mix).

Since we have phpbb as backbone, we can try to show personalized results under hot story sections. I know I need to work really hard to make this happen.

Why not call the link "wiki" instead of Kbase?

A lot of people do not understand what a wiki is and I think we need to develop a knowledge base for each category.

For me it's the other way around but OK. Now I know what KBase stands for. Laughing

I think we should make it Knowledge Base or Knowledge Bank from KBase. What is your opinion about?

I recently wrote about why a marketer needs to be dumber than customer and I think we really need to do it http://www.idealwebtools.com/blog/marketers-dumber-thancustomer/

Story section : Some activities are happening inside the section.
Knowledge base: Not picked up yet
Tagging: Some of us are using the tagging but needs to be made simpler and more useful.

A review of past friday releases.
