Bear with us while we tell you a little story folks - of late, our tiny team has been trying to do so much with so little time that we've been forgetting to follow up on stuff. Out of sheer need, we decided to make an internal dashboard of sorts, so we can keep track of everything. As we were building it, we thought - "hold on, why should this be internal?". And 6 intense days later, we end this story with a new link added to your dashboards - IndiStatus!

As always, feedback and bug reports are appreciated! Smile

What does that IndiBlogger pie chart mean? Innocent

And what is the name of that spider graph of IndiTeam and what are the numbers? Innocent

That's odd - I'm on Windows 7 - Firefox and Chrome tested. Ranjith, what's your screen resolution? And would you mind checking it in Firefox as well?

The IndiBlogger pie chart - you need to mouseover to see the data. It respresent the most popular tags on IndiVine over the last 48 hours.

Seems like a great initiative.. Might be difficult but will be great if against the <results out> tab there is a also timer on tentative timer on days to results.. like the one for entries to be displayed..

Renie Ravin

We considered this - but from experience, that timer would be meaningless, no matter how tentative it is. The judges almost always take longer than they promise, even if they don't intend to. Frown

We are really moving somewhere. Great, Initiative, IndiTeam. Congratulations. Laughing

That's a super initiative. I think this was long due as it was difficult to follow up on the contests and the results. Cool Though I also have the same questions that Ranjith asked ? Wink

Suggestion - Add a link to follow the old (earlier) contests as well. As the results come late and there is possibility on missing out on results.

Renie Ravin

That's a good suggestion Gaurab - we'll add that, thank you! Smile

Sorry Bhavana - only one color scheme for this one. We may have been thinking of submarine control rooms when we made this. Embarassed

This is really great. Dashboard looks awesome with loads of information. It will be nice if you can give a note to each graph saying what it represents. I am sure that you guys are working on improvingthe indistatus. Good luck team IB.

Suggestion:

When I was initially looking around stuff, it left me a bit confused. I was checking out the Car Connect experience part wherein I have participated as well and it looked something like this:

And, I was like: Since there' a check box besides "Results not out", shouldn't this be checked? Innocent since this is true? or the text should read "Results out" and so on.

And great job, IB, I know not where you guys are going but ... THANK YOU so much for taking me along.. Smile

Ranjith
from hyderabad |

You think too much Tongue out

Arti
from Mumbai |

Yeah, I try to take inspiration from you. Wink

Ranjith

Renie Ravin
from Chennai |

That's a good point, I didn't think of that.... but if the text reads "results out" then someone might take it literally and wonder what's going on as well, won't they?

Does it make sense to remove the empty checkboxes if it's unchecked?

As for your last line - I don't have the words right now, I hope a meaninful smiley will do for now. Thank you! Smile

Arti
from Mumbai |

Smile

You have a point there... Yes, removing those check boxes makes sense. You might want to consider putting arrow marks instead.

One more suggestion:

I was just wondering if there was any way IndiStatus could be made interactive? Innocent

Actually, when I first went in - I somehow felt the layout to be appealing in such a manner that, I tried to find some buttons to play around with (may be something to do with tracking our statistical stuff regrading IndiVine posts, IndiContest entries and all which are hidden and dynamic in nature) but hit on none.
