Neowin Spy is up and running


Recommended Posts

I was just starting to miss the Mini-Spy (never knew it by it formal name) when I clicked the Spy tab out of curiosity.

It's even more feature-packed than the Mini-Spy now that it has it's own dedicated page. Awesome work, guys!

I spy with my little eye.........this!

Pretty cool integration to see whats happening in all areas of the site. Looking forward to seeing the mini spy pop up.

One thing i'm not getting along with (and strangely it didn't bother in the test) is the fact that post/thread appears more than once (every time some action take place within it), a hefty or inordinately busy thread could wipe the usefulness of the full spy out... is this the same with the mini-spy?

mini-spy is up and running too now. :)

Only while you're in a thread and not on the forum index though. Once the latter is turned on we should be very close to the full Neowin 6 as originally planned.

Scratch that, it just made a comeback on the forum index as well. Sweet!

Getting lots of duplicate threads on the spy, can't seem to nail down a trigger though.

Still think it's awesome!

this is how it is supposed to work:D

There seems to be a bug with Mini-spy in the effect that it doesn't hide when you're at the sub-category level say General Discussion you click on the up arrow to hide it and it stays there. The mini-spy keeps on coming back every post you go to even if I do not want to see it it keeps on coming back.

A great suggestion would be to have mini-spy or spy work for categories you've added to your favorites say General Discussion. Hardware News etc instead of everything on the site...

The old forum activity thing has always been a big reason I've stayed and posted as much as I have here. The mini spy looks good.... can't wait for it to be there :)

Same here really. Never really have time to look through all the seperate forums. Love Spy!
