A new site, a shiny new blog and a steep learning curve on how to use spout. I'm a bit baffled by some of the moves, it took me a while to suss out how to get films onto some of my lists, but not all of them show up when I want to add something. Why is this? Have I created too many lists? It's a bit daunting because obviously the ones I'm adding at the moment are sub categories, but I can't add them onto the Movies I've Seen. And obviously I've seen them or I wouldn't be listing them. So I thought perhaps they would add in automatically but no luck so far. Still I haven't been here long so maybe I need to look around a bit more.The thought of looking up every movie I've seen is just too daunting, does everyone do that? Yikes alive.
Also it's a bit odd to add someone to my contacts list without actually asking them in an invite. I guess the best way forward with that would be to message them first? And it's not very easy to see how to join a group - I eventually got something but still have no idea whether that went through or not.
And isn't it awful trying to decide where to put what? I started with my favourite disaster movies and it's great to have other movies flagged up that are similar, but I'm not really sure I should have added in Alive. OK it was a disaster, but when talking about 'disaster' movies I tend to think of those wonderful cheesy over the top movies of the 70's, with the big star casts all making fools of themselves, and Alive doesn't really fall into that category. I need to rethink a little bit, maybe delete some lists and start again. Already!
It's the shelfari tag cloud agony all over again!
