Job Board & General Site Suggestion
-
Job Board: Would it be possible to setup email alerts if a job is posted in the vicinity of a zipcode or state. Ex: I live in Michigan, US and I would like to be notified of job postings in my area or state. This could be a voluntary program that is set in the 'My Settings', and I believe it would a desirable feature of people posting jobs on this site. General Site Suggestion: On the homepage of CodeProject their is a list of 3-4 forums on the right-hand side of the site. Would it be possible to have customizable to other forums. The forums that I most dwell in are VB, C#, .NET, Windows Forms, etc, and I would not mind having those appear on the homepage. The ones listed their now do, at times, have a catchy title, but for the most part I do not visit those forums.

1. This is something we've been planning for v2.0 2. We've added the ability to 'Watch' forums (click the eye glasses icon on a forum) and you will then see the latest 5 messages in your 'My CodeProject' page. I know this isn't quite what you're asking, but is it close?
cheers, Chris Maunder

1. You are one step ahead of everything 2. It is a start. The main issue that I am thinking about: When I first get to the CodeProject website, I want to be able to instantly know whether their is something that I can assist with in the other forums. One option with how the site is currently configured: have the ability to show the 'My CodeProject' when an already logged in member vists www.codeproject.com (could be an option in 'My Settings'). Or just have the ability to customize the forums listed on the main page, which was my first suggestion. Overall you are constantly making great improvements to the site and whatever you go with I am sure will make the site better. I am just throwing ideas at you so that you can use or discard them as you wish.
