Many new Profile Features in the works! [Admin]

You may notice your profile layout have been updated.

Changes:
* movement of MY Panel to top-right
* includes latest Special Announcement limited to your shows
* includes a link to "Find Similar" shows. Eventually will add this option for characters, videos, and friends
* includes Favorite Networks on bottom-right
* includes random trivia fact limited to your shows on bottom-right

Be sure to check out the "Find Similar" option for your shows. It looks for TV shows not on your profile with multiple celebrities in the main cast who also appear in the main cast of the favorite shows. I've already found a couple new shows to get into myself.

Also note the internal profile pages are being worked on now to add other options such as setting your own order for all your shows and separate them into groups like "currently watching", "want to try out", etc.

Looking for feedback:

As before Good Layout change.

Especially the change to and movement of my panel.

Good idea to have it limited to Messages and Friends
when visiting other profiles.

"Find Similar" is not very useful as currently implemented. When I think 'similar' I'm thinking of the nature of a series, not the actors. For example, I go a bundle on time travel and wild-talent themes. "The 4400" should match with "Heroes", and "Journeyman" with "Time Traveler's Wife" (I know, the film of that is not yet released, let alone any TV series - I should be so lucky - but that's the sort of 'similar' I would like to find).

Probably a lot harder to implement though, granted :-)

@softwiz,

when you go to the "Journeyman" page on sharetv you'll already find a link to "Heroes" on the bottom and when you click on the Heroes page you'll already find a link to "The 4400". Plus there is a list of your Common Networks and Tags on the bottom of the Find Similar page which you can go through manually.

I am trying something completely different with this panel by matching related cast. Still looking for better ways to find new related shows. If anyone has any ideas, let me know.

What I could do is add another tab to the Find Similar page to list all the similar shows found on the bottom of your show pages which you haven't added to your profile.

Now that would be good. perhaps by tag or combination of tags?

itcdr, use the LastFM method of recommendated songs.

1) analyze your favorite shows
2) compare to other's favotire shows, select few users with 80%-99% match
3) display their shows (excluding your favorites)

for example.
I have in favotires: Lost, House, Prison Break

person 1: Lost, house, Prison Break, smallville - 100% match
person 2: Lost, house, Prison Break, smallville, heroes - 100% match

ShareTV recommends me to watch:
smallville - 2 counts
heroes - 1 count

Thank-you so much for the addition of Upcoming Premiere's! That's a great way to keep track of new season start dates and new show start dates!

@liliflaj & NIP

you are not the only one there is a glitch in the counter for friends requests. Remember you must still leave a message to say you have requested friendship.

"my contributions" does not work because Admin (itcdr) still has functions within it to complete.

With respect I suggest that Admin has enough work on just improving this site.
