Launch of IndiSpire

Only 3 of the 9 posts that were submitted are valid. The others are about mutual funds, some cloud apps and a two line post. 

¿

Most of the post submitted for edition 1 are invalid. 

god knows, I hope mine is a valid one

'Not yet submitted entries' are not valid 

is it that no topic got more than 5 votes or .....,

It shows only recent voters.

where do we see all vote count. there ought to be a tab of no. of votes

this means which topic is winning remains a suspense till announced. wow

Yes 

May be this is done to prevent people from getting influenced by the vote count! 

Also to prevent ppl asking others to vote for their ideas to defeat a higher voted idea

You can ask for votes on this thread ( either directly or indirectly ) ( till the time someone comes and says 'Not allowed' ) 

Those who liked my idea 'XYZ' do vote for it.

'XYZ' idea is cool. 

Submitted the idea 'XYZ' 

voted for xyz,

now what people gonna write for xyz

nice initiative. trying to make the deadline for first entry.

Why am I feeling that only the recent 50 ideas are being displayed? 

@ Renie 

It currently shows 56 ideas

NSV I think it has been fixed  because when I posted the above reply, the topic 'Describe 5 things you miss about the 80s! #GoodOldDays' was not there and I remember voting for it. 

There should be some incentives for the top 3 bloggers (ranked by indivine votes). The best incentive could be of course, as ND suggested above, that the post be published in a newspaper. And I would suggest, the next 2 best posts be put up on indiblogger site itself with prominence (in some parts of landing page of the site). That would be promising enough I guess.

I think the only caveat here is selecting the best posts, which is a headache the IB team would not want to have 

@RioDe: Yeah true, I too don't like indivine votes. But then choosing the best posts will become quite a difficult task for indiblogger team. 

I'm against the indivine votes being a criteria  as well. 

This is a great initiative Renie, kudos to the inditeam for this!!

If anyone missed this from the IndiSpire page, ''Check the IndiBlogger homepage everyday for the latest IndiSpired posts!''

I guess there are changes coming up on the Indi Home Page as well!!

I can't notice anything unsual on the homepage, even thought the Indispired posts have already started coming.?

What is it? I didn't get it Kindly somebody please explain it to me

Every week an idea will be selected out of all the proposed ideas by IB'ers. You have to blog about it and submit it within a week

Ok. So it's like a prompt that's selected by IBers?

hmmmm maybe...i was completely lost after the first few in the 2nd edition...as the list kept growng my head started spinning

yeah

There should also be a 'Renie choice' topic. 

what about my choice topic bro.

Ranjith choice, Rio choice also 

Forum Heros' choice. That would increase forum activity as well.

Looks like renie has listened to you. Only 10 ideas displayed now for the 3rd edition

You checked it at the time when exactly ten ideas were submitted. 

hehehe, true, I submitted another idea just to check if it came up or not.

Opps..its a coincidence...what a great one

I wish there was an 'Vote down' button for ideas. 

I donot think it is of any use, just ignore rubbish ideas.

i think report tab in topics may be one option. explicit words of Adult nature, is it allowed or ..., this should be also clear.  

Posted for edition-2  ( #BackFromTheDead ) .  Think I am the first to post.

 But my post is not yet visible under Indispire edition-2 ??????

 The Indispire page shows that there are no posts under this edition as yet. Wondering why??

Looks like there is some bug. Entries under 'Waking up from the dead........' get posted only under 'Weird' and not under 'Waking up from the dead..........'

@Renie, could you pl see?

Thanks Rio. I raised a ticket. Should I mail too?

Hey Saket - yes there was a bug, and it's been fixed!

Thanks Renie, that was fast! Indifast!

However, just an update... the 'View Posts' button doesn't take to the page displaying posts. You may like to fix that too.

This button too is fixed now.

looks you are the first to be back from dead, and alone, lets see who gonna join you next

only  1 post..no body wanna come back from dead

ok..another joined in...so 2

ND, some think its better over there than here. Less pollution 

better where??

Why the Idea I propose on Indispire gets fewer votes?

Are the numbe of votes visible to the original poster? 

we all can see it, dont we?

No, we can't. We can see only upto five votes. We can not see the exact number of votes, even for our idea.

Thanks Saket. I didn't submit any idea. So, I wanted to know if the original poster of an idea can see the votes received for his idea. 

But you can keep track of the number of votes received by each idea by noting down the voters list once every few minutes. 

You can also write a program to automate the task. 

very awkward Rajith didnot post any idea, but only votes for them.

At 10PM every Thursday, the next edition activates, and the idea with the most votes is selected. In the case of a tie, the IB server selects one at random.

Earlier it was, 'IndiAdmins select an idea' to break the tie. 

there is a bug again, unable to vote at indispire posts

bug still there. voting for posts submitted at indispire  doesn't pass through. 

congo"s Shruti on your idea winning and truly, at first glance I wasn't much  attracted by it. but when I plunged, I am glad I opted to write on this theme. I am enjoying my writeups.

I rarely log here.. sucha  coincidence, i visited the thread or else I would have missed this.. thankie.. and I wrote this prompt because I have often felt like I woke up from the dead,.. thanks to my endless "death dreams".. I've enjoyed reading your opener :)

Certainly a good concept. Here we get topics which are really interesting to write upon. Indiblogger is now expanding beyond shampoo topics :D

Amazing initiative. It was high time I got more involved in Indiblogger activities. My lifestyle blog was in hibernate mode. Hopefully I will find some inspiration here to post more often. I already see interesting topics. Posted one of mine! et's see what happens. 

Kudos to the Indiblogger team for always doing the best to help us bloggers!

Waking up from the dead and watching how life unfolded without you.. Is your lover remarried? Is your mother over your loss and likewise. #BackFromTheDead Damn, I am half way through this and I am crying like a 5 year old who is lost in a trade fair or something... I think the response to this edition will be the longest post in my blog.  

yo, waiting to read your post.

I finished writing finally!

Love this IndiSpire initiative. It is so motivating that the latest IndiSpire Posts feature on the IB Home-page.

Some of the stories moved me to tears.

Loved to be #BackFromTheDead . After writing my story & reading everyone's comments, I truly believe I am #BackFromTheDead !

Thanks IB for the opportunity.

I saw your #BackFromDead from your Write Tribe link up! I loved it totally!

Thanks a lot! Yours is great!
