Say Good Morning to Nuffnang 2.0

Posted by Timothy Tiah @ Nuffnang on Nov 16th, 2007

Say Good Morning to Nuffnang 2.0!

Yes, the team at Nuffnang are a cheeky lot!!!

In our most recent blog entry, we claimed Nuffnang.com would be facing downtime so we could update our servers.

Update our servers we did! Only with the brand new NN2.0!

Surprise! Good morning! And let us take you on a tour of the site.

Before I do that, let us all note that as with every new piece of software out there, NN2.0 is still in the Beta phase, and there will be bugs, so we are counting on our users to report them to us via the helpdesk.

What has changed?

OOOHHH SOOO HANDSOME!!!

The look of Nuffnang has been completely revamped. Along with our logo, it has a totally new identity. One that is cool, suave, and sophisticated.

Nuffnang.com has only been around for 10 months, and this is our 3rd facelift! We are never one to stay still, and will continue to improve on that end to keep up with the trends.

The entire site has been hard coded in CSS, so it is of global site status (No more pages breaking up).

Everybody say thank you to Firdauz for a wonderfully designed site!

Innit!!!? Our very own blog aggregator

Nuffnang 2.0 and indeed every version of Nuffnang, has always been a collaboration between bloggers and ourselves.

When we consulted some of our bloggers, over lunches, events and the like, we realised bloggers love audiences!

A blog aggregator was always one of the top on the “want list”. So we thought, “Why not!?”

With alooooot of traffic coming into Nuffnang in any given day, it provides the perfect audience for bloggers looking to increase their profile and audience.

We are not one to rest on our laurels though. Nuffnang will be launching PAID campaigns on our bloggers site to drive traffic to Nuffnang, so more people are reading your blogs.

Innit is also a “bridge” between the Malaysian and Singaporean communities, and is in line with our aims of forging a community. You can choose to read posts from both countries or you can choose to read blogs from your own country. The choice is yours. Key word: choice.

Blogger Login

Nuffnang 2.0 now has a beautiful control dock for our bloggers when they log in. Upload your photo *It will come in useful soon*

The main point of the navigation dock is that wheras in the past, you could not effectively navigate the public site without logging out. With NN2.0, you can now. So you can check details of the latest community event, and your stats, without needing to log out. Snippets of important information can also be found on the navigation dock links.

At the same time, you have now more information, in the way of a daily hourly stats report. So NN2.0 tells you how many visitors you have gotten in the past hour. When do people read your blog? What time of day?

You may also have noticed our graphical bar chart plug in which makes comprehending data alot easier.

Ajax! Ajax! Ajax!

No, not the dutch football team!

Ajax is an advanced web development technique, that is used so the entire webpage does not have to be reloaded everytime the user requests a change (Quoted from Wikipedia).

NN2.0 is full of ajax.

To enhance your experience, Ajax has been implemented extensively in nuffnang so you don’t have to wait for the page to reload.

Say for example from Analytics figures today, you click on the keywords tab. Whereas, in the past you had to wait for an entirely new page to load, now, it appears in an instant. Swanky eh. We like it too.

In almost every other page, you will see this kind of effect.

It’s in the details!

There are a whole host of other tiny details that we have improved on to make your Nuffnang experience better.

Let me cite just two of them. The first one, is the FAQ.

It has been updated to include questions we have encountered very often on the helpdesk. At the same time, if you scroll down, you will never lose the questions panel on the left. It follows the page, so you can refer to another question and navigate around easier. A small touch, but many small touches add up.

The second one, is for the new blogger who is signing up.

If you check out our registration form, in old forms, you will notice that errors are only detected once you click the submit button, at which time you find your password has been resetted.

As soon as you fill in one field of our form, and move on to the next, our form detects if everything is good.

Have a feel around to see if you can spot any other little features we have added for your convenience.

Advertiser Login

The advertiser login, has also been completely revamped.

The Nuffnang team has actually met up with the media and advertising agencies, and companies, to ask what they would want in the advertiser CMS. Having compiled their feedback, changes were incorporated.

A swanky ajax interface, with a intuitive campaign reporting system will keep our advertisers very well informed and up to date with important and real time perfomance figures.

More new featured are being added in line with their suggestions.

Our backend

Our backend has been completely revamped. It is now a beast of a machine that can deal with increased scale more rapidly,
intuitively, and efficiently.

It gives us more information as well, so that no blogger gets left behind, and advertising budgets are equitably allocated.

This is just the start!

The curent NN2.0 is just the start.

Many new features which will add further value to our Nuffnangers are in the pipeline and will be released bit by bit.

They will be new, cutting edge, but more importantly useful to you.

If you think you would like a feature very much, that other bloggers would appreciate, we welcome suggestions to our new
feedback channel, innovation@nuffnang.com

Phew. Ok that’s just half of what I wanted to say. Joking lah!

Thats all then! Take care! Please give a round of applause to our entire Nuffnang team. The technical team for giving us NN2.0 and the rest, who helped with the daily tasks, so the technical nuffies could get on with the job.

Timothy, Firdauz, Lee Meng, Raff, Nicholas, Skyler, Janice, Esther, Huiwen, Wenqi, Fayth, YAT, Vivian, Uncle Ronnie, and Auntie Molly! Thank you nuffle puffs!

Ming, Timothy, and the Nuffle Puffs!

    Congratz to the Nuffnang teams! You guys have done a great job in improving this website! I love the new layout and those new features especially the daily hourly stats report system. By the way, I found that the “view past months” report option has been removed? Hmm, I’ve just uploaded a photo in my profiles but it turns out to be stretched horizontally.

  2. cHrIstInA_YY Says:

    Oops, there’s word count in comment too? Half of my comment gone missing ~.~ Anyway, I know it’s still in beta phase, it’s gonna take time to test & debug… So good luck and appreciation to all those involved in this hard work! Gambateh Nuffnang!~

    “Nuffnang will be launching PAID campaigns on our bloggers site to drive
    traffic to Nuffnang, so more people are reading your blogs.”

    “It gives us more information as well, so that no blogger gets left behind, and advertising budgets are equitably allocated.”

    These two sentences excite me as a Nuffnang blogger a lot! I hope Nuffnang 2.0 will deliver its promises.

    Is it possible to open Innit to non-Nuffnang bloggers? I guess I know the answer but I hope to get a confirmation from Nuffnang.

    Good luck Nuffnang! ;-)

  32. kah-kah-kah Says:

    Not bad la. But still look dull and passive. Need more vibe.

  33. littlepolaris Says:

    Well done!
    Nuffnang bcom relli hensem ler!

  34. Jonathan Chu Says:

    I had mailed the admin, and was so tempted to mail Timothy to congratulate him personally about this entire new outlook of Nuffnang. And dispute it or not, this appearance indeed is a millions times better than the previous one. What more, the logo creatively communicates what is Nuffnang all about, Nuffnang’s goals, and et cetera.

    Unlike the old version that took me quite a long time to accustom myself to, this new version is surprisingly easy to navigate about, and I just have to say it: I absolutely LOVE this new outlook .

    Keep up the good work, Admin! I believe Nuffnang would soar to higher skies.

  35. Fahmishah Says:

    nice work all Nuffnang team.I hope there will be some improvement for advertisers and bloggers

  36. Fahmishah Says:

    nice work all!

    It may be weird for me to ask this, but can I do the design for 3.0 LOL!

    I’ve got a few design ideas/improvements lingering in my head right now. Anyway, see la…might post it up when I review the new Nuffnang 2.0 on my blog. :D

    but there is one small error in ur coding. when i click my ‘referals’ the link shows will spill out of the text area.

  46. RollsRoyce Says:

    wow mans, nuffnang latest web update is so cool~ and oso hope can fix my nuffnang’s ad. it doesnt seem to generate few cents even!!.. hope everything’s well >_>!~

  47. mIcheLLe Says:

    *whoopee* A new outlook!! :) Gotta love the new analytics, but one thing though..it would definitely be more user friendly to add a grand total of number of clicks for the day, instead of having to click to the ‘weekly readership’ page.

    congrats nuffnang!!

  48. Aaron Says:

    This is so cool. Keep up the great job! I love the aggregator. XD
