Happy Vialogues Day, everyone!
The new site is up. Go on, take a gander. Be sure to register first. It’s okay, I’ll wait.
Now, I know I touched on this briefly yesterday, but I want to walk you through the changes and improvements we’ve made to Vialogues.com.
Cleaner and clearer user interface
- This handy-dandy comment icon is now completely ubiquitous.
- Moderator icon. Now you you can easily peruse dozens of comments in a vialogue and immediatelysee which were made by your trusted moderator(s). Very practical for classroom settings.

- Dynamic banner. Automatically scrolling. Extremely chic, no?
- Easier sorting. In a click, rearrange all the vialogues available by Most Active, Recent Comments, Recently Vialogues, and A-Z.
- Easier searching. Not only is our search bar much easier to spot, but we’ve added an Advanced Search option, because we are so very, very advanced over here.
- If you’re a moderator, now you can delete irrelevant or unsavory comments by other participants. Also very practical for classroom settings.
- Edit and delete your own comments. ‘Nuff said.
Profile page
- Now, by clicking on your name in right-hand corner, you can select “View Profile” to see the total number of comments you’ve made on Vialogues, how many vialogues you’re moderating, and how many you’re participating in.
- You can also see all videos you’ve uploaded and how many vialogues they have inspired.
- Easily view and sort the Vialogues you’ve participated in.
Notifications
- Opt in to receive notification emails. Stay up-to-date and more involved with your vialogues!
- Notification system. These two little buttons next to our logo activate when you receive requests by other users to join a private vialogue, and

real-time notifications when others comment on a vialogue you’re participating in.

- Embedded vialogues: The ability to embed a vialogue existed before, but now changes made to a vialogue will appear in the embedded vialogue as well. Also, the scrollable comments have now shifted to below the video.
- When writing comments, line breaks will actually show after you click “Post.”
- Any web address you type in a comment will become a clickable link.
- Because Vialogues is flash-based, it doesn’t work on iPhones and iPads. As a partial solution, embedded vialogues are now HTML5-compliant.
As far as technical improvements, that’s about it, but our web design team has done a killer job making Vialogues simply nicer to look at, too. Particular props go out to Vialogues Team members Josh, Pranav, Alex, Wei, and Yudan!
