We released a bunch of features that we've been working on for the past few weeks early this morning - after a late night coding and bug hunting fixing session.
These features are under the Tools umbrella:
Dictionary - look up 6000+ stock related terms (from investorwords.com)
Stocks - look up stock quotes, add stocks to questions (from quotemedia.com), done with Eric and Burak's help
People Search - look up users
Articles - this isn't new but we re-did some of the backend
New Search - search everything! with AJAX autocomplete!
Also, with the Monique's help (she knows how to make things pretty), we shift a couple of things around to make the site much easier to use and aesthetically pleasing. The process was brutal - Monique and Wayne made me shift pixels for hours! PIXELS!! HOURS!!
It feels like the battle is won but the war is not over... damn you IE6! I should be doing victory laps right now, not worrying about how fixes and hacks. Where do we send Microsoft the invoice for the hours we spent fixing their crappy browser?
All in all, I'm pretty proud of our accomplishments. I hate it and love it every time we release features.
