Full text Comment and Message Alerts
You may have noticed that email alerts have included the full text of comments and messages this week?
This is our small way of supporting you office workers out there that have Xanga blocked in the workplace. Do we think it’s fair that The Man is preventing you from hearing from your friends on Xanga? NO! That’s why Dave and Ayca are helping you FIGHT BACK!
If you use Xanga mostly at home or school… then nvm – you can ignore this. We’ll still send you full text alerts though, b/c it’s pretty handy.
FIGHT THE POWER! To enable your email alerts, you can turn them on here:
Comments (44)
Excellent…thanks.
It would be very handy when I do get work….. however I would not be best please
If the company I might work for also blocks the provider my email address I am with. I will have to draw Xanga instead during my lunchtime
Also huge eprops as well
HAHAHAHAHA!!! i have noticed. the reason behind this, though, is HILARIOUS!! you guys are great.
yeah I am loving that thanks!!
thanks
lol I dont need it for the work reason, rofl , but it is still handy none – the – less, thank you
What a very cool idea…
I still don’t like the message alerts on the private page though! Gotta get rid of those… Isn’t the (1) message enough…
Anyway… I am extremly anal about keeping my message box deleted and those are driving me nuts. They feel like CLUTTER…
Keep up the good work you guys.
sanity has ensued!
Yep, noticed it and it’s handy
Thanks!
So over at the xanga sweet shop, do you guys block facebook
I’m glade I don’t have that problem, it has been slow at work lately, I would be bored to death without my xanga.
In other words i think its a good idea
Now this a change I can embrace!
I noticed those right away, and I do like them very much, even though I am at home.
Thanks for your thoughtfulness!
yay! i like it. just like facebook..
but one comment: gmail used to put all my notification emails in one “conversation” but now they’re all separate emails. i know gmail hasnt changed anything, but is there a way to have the notifications emails sent in a way that they’ll be grouped as one convo?
haha thats hilarous!
I LOVE it because I get my email alerts on my phone and it is way easier that way!!! Thanks so much!! You guys rock!
Thanks for featuring my question for the SECOND time, but honestly, my question is too cliche, something posed by a reader of Women’s Health Magazine…not that I’m one of them *clears throat*. But I saw this very good question posed by imessangerman:
“Do you believe in your religion because of personal choice, or because you were born into it?”
FEATURE THAT SHIT!!!! Even if that person doesn’t want to, or not.
A really fantastic path for the xanga users to control the things easily!
support~
awesome! thanks dudes.
nice, nice!!! i love it.. UAE blocked the weblog feature, so any comments on a publish blog, (weblog.xanga), sadly i can’t view. have to find a way to view it though. but i still love xanga! thanks team!
I LOVE it. I read Xanga on my iPhone a lot, and it’s much easier/faster to asynchronously download e-mail comments than to get the iPhone Safari to fire up and download everything.
Way cool.
Lol. The Man part made me laugh.
I think this is a great idea. Rock on guys!
Haha that’s cool. Thank you for adding the full comment in our email, that way we don’t have to go to our site, look at the comment, then go to the commenter’s site and comment back. We can just comment back on their site. It’s really convienent..and thanks!
Hello. Since I can’t send a message, I will leave a comment here and hope someone reads it. I have a facebook. It is very busy and annoying. I have a myspace. I hate it and do not post there. Ever. I have a blogger. Too complicated. I LOVED Xanga…until you started messing with it. I am not liking all the new, busy stuff on the subs page. There are people leaving because of it. Sigh. I HAVE a facebook. I liked Xanga because it was DIFFERNT, not the same. Now…it’s looking more like facebook. What’s the point? TB
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!!!! My work JUST blocked Xanga from me the beginning of the year. Sux! But, I blog through my email and now with this new option I can see what people comment. Awesome tool thank you xanga!
way to stick it to the man. whoot! =D
How come on the new Xanga home pages, we can’t access the comments we’ve left. There’s no “Your Comments” on the new pages.
While I appreciate the idea, and it does help a lot: do you know if it has any affect on viewing messages regularly from one’s private Xanga site? The reason I ask is b/c I’ve been having problems doing that lately, the past few weeks or so, and at first thought it was my computer or browser and tried a different one. The problem, however, carried over. Is there any way to fix this? Am I the only one having this problem?
Peace and love, J.
wt i am giving is not comment about this feature, but to report a problem / bug / difficulty i am facing as well as other users.
a series of upgrading of xanga system bring a lot of good news to xanga users, but i found there is an unexpected problem.
well, it is about the advisetment. i found that the advisetment appear where is disturbing, example http://weblog.xanga.com/lohonam/638490865/problem-about-nokia-adv.html
the advisetment appear in the middle of the windows! how can i give comment?!
also, it appears in the main page of my xanga too!(public view)
this problem appear after i used the new private page. it seems that once i return to the old page, the problem will be solved. however, wt is solved is on the main page, but not the post comment.
this prolem is affecting a lot of users. i hope xanga team will investigating seriuously, and i’m looking forward to seeing ur response.
I really like the change. It’s nice to get the contents of a message or comment, I really appreciate it and I am not at work but have the computer available to me always with access to Xanga.
Thanks for the helpful changes.
you are slowly ruining xanga.
hit the fucking recovery button on all your servers and jump back to 05
http://xanga.com/Angelic_Wendy <— That girl hijacked my layout from http://xanga.com/KicynanxDreams . And I specifically said for people not to use it. I worked so frickin hard on the wallpaper and its for my fiance. Also, that girl Angelic Wendy is underage. She even deleted the comment where I asked for her to take the layout off. It’s not even hers. She ignored it. Then blocked me -_-;;; Can you like warn her to take it off? I’m really pissed….. the wally means a lot to me and my fiance. If you want proof that I made it, ask me. Thanks for helping..

THANKS for the sending the full comments and messages via email. I love it!
This is fantastic… I love it! Thanks!
I am a stay at home mom but I still love it
This is a most helpful feature, by the way, especially for us mobile Xangans who get their personal emails on their blackberries! I love sitting in a business meeting, seeing who commented on my last post!
Hello! I have a suggestion I would like to make. Whenever I comment people and then later, I change my default pic, the pic on my previous comments changes to gray! Maybe you could have it where every comment you post will stay the same default pic, not matter how many times you change it?
This is just a suggestion of course =]
or The Woman in the interested of fairness
If Xanga is ever blocked in the country where I live (I would move countries to get my daily dose of Xanga.
I would never ever go on another social site again if this happened
Yes it was pretty handy for me today at work when I was checking my email. Thanks Xanga! :P
super cool
a lot of schools have sites like this blocked, so this is a really cool feature!
