New Add Flow

2007.05.17, bryan

Welcome Redditors! From a mere mention in the comments of a post on a sub-reddit, the traffic to this site spiked to new heights. Welcome one and all. I hope you enjoy your stay.

I wish I could have had tonight's update in last night, though. It's a great one - the flow for adding beers has changed, and it means that you can now edit your typos! (Long-time users are warned that the typo-fixing form has taken the place of the brewery-details form, so stop and look before you type in cities and URLs.)

The new flow also does smart things like assume that you want to add a beer to the brewery you're currently looking at, and check to see if there are other breweries with names similar to what you typed, but with "Co." on the end instead of "Company". I know it's still not perfect, but I think this makes things a lot easier.

Let me know what you think, if you're so inclined. Send mail to webmaster@, and I'll see what I can do.
