Hey everyone, just wanted to inform you all of a few small updates and hopefully a couple other things I may get to this week. I worked on the site most of the day and accomplished a couple of things.
First of all, if you are in a forum and you hover over a topic title (or the area around it) a small preview will pop up containing approximately 150 characters (depending on the final word length) and you can read what the first post in the topic is.
Second, on the homepage, if you simply scroll all the way to the bottom more content will load without any additional work. Finished reading that? Keep scrolling and older stuff will load. Right now you can theoretically go back in time all the way to 2001 but I'll likely end up limiting it to a few months being no one really needs to scroll that far back.
Please note that you may have to do a ctrl+F5 to refresh the page if the homepage isn't working right for you immediately.
I would like to take care of a few other suggestions, etc that are in the bugs and glitches this week if possible, and depending on my schedule. We will see. I like the ideas suggested for the Swap Meet area and I think I could implement those, and some other neat things there. I also want to implement live updates of the homepage meaning when something new happens it will automatically show up there if you have your browser sitting there. That may take some time though as I need to figure out the best, most efficient way to do it.
I'm done with college now, kinda in a transition period for me. In the next few weeks I don't know how much I'll be able to be online or working on the site. I need to find out what I'm going to do for work, where I'm going to live, all that good stuff so please bare with me. I do hope to get some major time this summer to dump into the site. I have a lot of neat ideas, just a lack of time.

Thanks for incorporating this feature, I think its a great addition to the site. Unfortunately it doesn't seem to work if you have searched for topics, such as when I click on "active topics" and then try to hover over those topics. Thanks again though for all the hard work on the site!

Congrats on that for sure.
It's a rough time in the economy to be just out of school,
but I also know that you are smart and resorceful.
Any thing in particular you are looking for?
Maybe some where with a killer long season?
Speaking of which,
Friday we are riding West Mountain.

That bought him another 10 years of school.
I reject your reality and substitute my own.

What do I look like, a magician? Those things are impossible to do...
Haha. I've gotten your subtle hints of the past half year. I'll see what I can do. Mainly it's me just remembering to do it.
