socialmedian Upgrades "Replize" With Auto-Complete For Contacts

| | Comments (0) | TrackBacks (0)
User engagement on socialmedian has taken off dramatically since we launched "replize" about 4 weeks ago.  Replize enables any user to post a comment to another user by including their @username in the reply.  This makes a comment more of an ongoing public discussion and debate between users vs. just posting a comment to a webpage.

Today we launched a cool enhancement to replize:  Auto-Complete for Contacts.  With this release, socialmedian users can easily include any of their socialmedian contacts (people they are following or people who are following them) by simply typing "@" and the first few letters of the person's username.  socialmedian will then bring up a list of users you are connected to and you can select which of them to include.

In this screen-capture, for example, I want to include Louis Gray in this discussion.  All I need to do is type "@lo" and socialmedian auto-completes to show me all of my matching contacs.  I can then choose louisgray from the list and add him to my comment.  Louis then gets a notification that he has been included in this story.
