My test post is showing up as being older than this post when this post was already here. This is probably because Tony reset the timezone. This also means that the database stores the localized time without the timezone info and not UTC time. Naughty developers.
The username tagging thing is certainly a really cool feature, just about exactly the same way twitter works. My name and username on twitter are not the same.
It’s also annoying that the @mention feature uses the username not the display name, which often differs. The display name needs to be the unique username to be really useful.
I’m not keen on receiving an email every time somebody responds to a post, but the notification at the top corner is perfect. Lets me know somebody fired back without having to wade through a million pages, and keeps my inbox from being flooded.
