Announcing the all new IndiVine 2.0!
It's finally here - thanks to everyone's ideas, inputs and suggestions here, we're super happy to bring you the new IndiVine! Freak out and fill up the categories with your blog posts - and vote away! 
As always, you guys will be instrumental in IndiVine's development, and the next few days are crucial while the system stabilizes. Do send in any bugs or feedback you have so we can track everything on this topic.
A special thanks to Vipul Grover and the gang who pushed us to do this. Personally, I think it's something IndiBlogger badly needed - a fact I never would have realized if not for the forum!
For those with questions about how it works, do read the faqs.
Evry othr thing aside, i mst share this cmmnt frm a blogger buddy aftr he read an old post of mine thru IndiVine..

Hey Renie, u jus got stuck in d hips i blive 
* doing the bangra!*
Thanks Vipul for lending your expert hand. So Reinie what say you..
Next / Last links added to the homepage... will look into the random sorting as well!
Thumbs Up :)
Thanks Renie for adding the 'Next' button to 'Latest' . Look forward to the 'random suggestion' and/or scrolling list. Meanwhile my solitary post has got 3 votes May be I'll include th rest of my posts too.
yeah do tht.. Keep on adding :)
hi renie,
The problem is fixed man. Thanks a lot for that.
I have another query. i somehow missed filling the teags for a particular article man. is there anyway i can edit that.
This might be helpful for others too man.
Will have some basic editing options in a week or so - want to see how the system performs first!
1000+ posts added in 2 days!!! 
This I did not expect!!! 
Xpct d unxpctd..
he renie. cool job man. u been doing a great job. how do we get ratings man.
only one post of mine has not got added man. thats the one creating problems from yesterday. dont know the problem.
Could you guys take a look at the IndiVine home page? I wasn't too convinced about random posts being put up on the homepage, that too ones with low votes... I think that by default, the homepage has to have the top posts on top, or else it loses it's value. So now, we have the top posts submitted in the last 48 hours by default. Let me know if this refreshes the cycle well enough!
First - Thank you Indivine. You guys have given my blog a great exposure.
I just found that one of my posts is at top in 48 hour list! Thanks a lot for that.
However I feel 48 hours is a very short period. Can it be made 1 week? 48 hours look fine for frequent posters/or for small posts.
I write 1 post per month. And I put considerable amount of energy in creating these posts. I am not a blogger in true sense. I write short stories and articles. I am sure there are other people like me, whose aim is not just scribbling anything daily.
Two day window is very narrow.
I still feel atleast for one month, only RANDOM option should b available.. depending upon whichevr algo u may find right giving all posts their 20 minutes of fame. Then suddenly aftr a month, Latest and Popular may b reintroduced while keeping the Random there though not default.
Plus features prsnt on Homepage should b same as those on othr pages..
Thank you Ravi!
Hmmm.... the issue is that if someone posts on IndiVine, they'll have to wait a good 7 days before they have a chance of getting votes... that can get discouraging... with 48 hrs the cycle is refreshed faster, gives people more of a chance!
Hi Renie, Love the Top posts in last 48 hours feature. Kudos to your fasr response!!
Thats great! Congratulations.. i am still waiting for a indiblogger rank for my blog :)

How to correct spelling mistake once the post is submitted? For example I wrote 'Andrha Flavor' instead of 'Andhra Flavor', so it shows no post. Need help 
Indivine was down since I joined here..I was able to look into this today & wow its cool !
So many categories & so many posts.. had my share in there as well..
I think Google Chrome 3 has some issues, we'll be testing it shortly.
Anyone have any ideas on how to encourage voting on IndiVine?
i saw this feature on another blog traffic improvement site, wherein every account gets points for any activity conducted on the site.
Similarily, we can have something on similar lines on indiblogger. Here is how it will work:
1) for every movie reviewed, the person gets some points
2) for every indivine vote, the person recieves points.
3) for every indiblogger of the month vote, the person recieves points
and so and on so forth. So thus for every activity, there is different weightage and different points are awarded. The persons with top points, get their blogs advertised either on some other sites or on the indiblogger home page itself. In order to avoid early members from getting a headstart, the points should be reset to zero every month or two. this would bring about more activity on the forum. The only thing to watch out for is that people dont post spam in order to generate more points.
How about this? :)

sorry not movie reviewed, but blog reviewed. Happens due to reviewing movies too much. :D
not a good idea?
Another thing, if a post is not promoted and has a '0' value assigned to it, yet some blogs come out first before others. On what basis is that happening? Is it chronological?
