What browser are you using please?
Firefox 7.
Ok, tested: something's wrong with Firefox. I have the same issue. That's since our last update, which was yesterday.
Looking into fixing this asap. Thanks

#42Re: Rate my startup - deegr
#43As far as I can tell, I can't get from a movie shown under "so-and-so also rated" on the left to the mute button. Mute doesn't appear when hovering over the movie, and clicking on the movie opens a panel on the right which doesn't have the mute button either. And the same goes for movies I search for; searching opens the same panel on the right, which still doesn't have the mute button.

Well, since muting is not yet taken into account in the algorithm, there's no point in muting a movie you and someone have in common, or a movie that you would directly make a search for.

Muting still has a useful purpose: I don't want to see the movie in the list anymore, even if I have it in common with someone.

#46Something about the login form causes Firefox to not successfully fill in the previously remembered username and password. That makes it quite inconvenient to log in (have to go copy the password out of the password manager).

#47I like it! I actually found a new movie that related to the ratings I supplied, nor have I seen it before, good stuff. Here are some thoughts: 1. I've feed Netflix a lot of my data over the years. A link from each movie to a Netflix result would show how Netflix rates it related to me. Maybe you don't want to push people to Netflix, but it's useful information to me. 2. I don't really care about the "people" I care a…
Thanks coffee, glad you like it. 1. Oh yes we want to push Netflix! We're just a small french project and Netflix has not invaded us as of this date; and is unlikely to do so for sometime, actually. I know what you're talking about and we'll see how/if we can implement it. 2. Well that's a bummer, deegr's all about finding others like you ^^ If we only recommended movies without telling you why you should like them,…
Yea I guess it would be interesting to know I have taste mates out there. But I feel like that's the bigger picture, once I regularly engage with you application. My perspective is one of, what do I get out of this right now, first time using it, that brings me back to enjoying the people matching in the future... Just my 2 cents...
Cool stuff though. I really like where your going with it. I instantly found it useful to find a new movie which is what is the most important to me now ( tomorrow following taste mates may trump that )

#48Generic comment: I like it a lot! Good UI, fast engine, good results
Secondary comments/suggestions:
1. After I voted a few movies I could see a list of similar people and a number of suggested movies. I could also see the movies other people liked, their votes and vote for them. As an UI suggestion make sure that when I put my mouse over another user's vote I understand that I can vote -- currently is not obvious
2.There is some french here and there...
3.I would love to see some simple "Watch this..." screen that is centered more to suggested movies and less on similar people. After all I am here to find movies!

Hey, thanks a lot for the boost!
1. Mmmm we should probably change de stars' color when hovering over them, to make people understand that they're in charge atm
2. Yes, I've read that a lot today. My engrish isn't so bad I guess, but it seems like after countless sneezy testings, I've missed a few trads...
3. Again, problem is that we've already focused a lot on movies not people; if we focus even less on the people, then they will almost disappear, and deegr will lose its special ingredient (ie. finding people that are like you).
Maybe you will actually find it useful to find people like you when you can find people like you from your town/age/sex/opposite sex... See what I mean? ^^

#50I've played quickly with your webapp and I really enjoyed it. I think the functionality is great and the results are pretty accurate! I was really impressed.
I would only suggest that you give people the option to rank more movies before building the circle if they want to. I think I could have gotten even better results if I could've reviewed more films.
Hope you succeed!
