Gmail also has a brand new chat interface built right into webmail they are rolling out

that might undermine the private messaging feature a little bit

Might be interesting to see the stat for the top 60 pm'ers...any chance of seeing that?

What are the benefits of gmail to IH?

The hubbers we need a plea bargain with Matt
~ For us being able to do multi PM's
~ It would be soooooo nice if we could PM our trading associates
without having to copy and paste on an individual bases..
This would be a GOOD TIME MANAGEMENT THING!
Does anyone else like this idea? Matt?

I've requested that feature several times and each time it was rejected.

[it] would create de facto private boards led by sterlings and zen investors.

That's what the message board is for!!
In all seriousness, it'd be abused for spamming purposes.

It must be a good idea since I agree with Matt that its a bad idea.

could we put spam control on it like we have for paid for sites?
just a thought

Search forms from Profile and Board

I finally got annoyed enough by the way search works when searching from profiles or boards.

Two problems.

1 - It would wipe out your search variables if you tried to go 'back' to it -- you'd need to retype it.

2 - If you did a search from the board or the profile and you sent the link to someone, it wouldn't work because only one of the form variables is passed in the URL.

I am now passing both in the URL.

Should fix both problems, I know for a fact it will fix #2.
