797,500 children (younger than 18) were reported missing in a one-year period of time studied resulting in an average of 2,185 children being reported missing each day; 203,900 children were victims of family abductions; 58,200 children were victims of non- family abductions; ONLY 492 children Since 1997, has the AMBER Alert program been credited for safe recovery. DNA could help in such safe recoveries at a fraction of cost of Amber Alert... If DNA help save ONE MORE CHILD it’s worth it? http://mdiamond.datanetworkaffiliates.com/ MHawk

Hey Friends, I've received a couple of friend requests and when I click on the email link, I thought originally it would send me to their page or a picture of them or something so I could better identify who they are. Is this possible instead of immediately accepting them as a friend when you click on the email link?

. How about a way to share a fave with your whole group. For example, if it is a great organic product, I would like to alert all my earth mamas of it.

Thanks for the feedback from last night's Twitter party everyone! Will be following up soon.

Is there a way to search for people by their moniker? I'm getting friend requests for IRL names, but only know them by their Twitter or blog name. Emails for friend requests come with IRL names too. I realize that some use IRL names and some don't.

Is it possible to delete a fave? Had trouble with one getting errors when I entered it, and now I see it's showing up 3 times, with no way to delete a multiple entry. Only need one to show! Thanks!

Changed my photo to png format and it uploaded. I''m not sure why the jpg wouldn't work.

I can't seem to upload a photo. I am able to change from the M avatar to a bag avatar, but I can't get the jpg to show up. I've cleared my cache, so I don't think that's it.

Suz

February 13, 2009 at 08:57 PM

So how about a place to click on your profile that lists your recent posts that were faved. I was just faved about 10 times and didn't want to have to open each e-mail and then click a link.

Mommy Colburn

February 11, 2009 at 10:10 AM

Is there a way to reduce the number of double faves or repeat faves? I've noticed several repeats or new faves that have already been put on by someone else.

I just created a group that was not location based and the form didn't let me save without a number zip code. I plugged in 00000, but I'm not sure that's an ideal fix.

kikarose

February 9, 2009 at 02:27 PM

Is there any way to give a negative rating to a submitted fave? Knowing what people love is great, but I'd want to know if people had a negative experience with that product, site, or service.

February 9, 2009 at 01:10 PM

I have one complaint! I'm having too much fun faving and I'm not getting my work done. :D Can't wait for the MomFaves button! -Amy

MomFaves

December 20, 2008 at 12:48 AM

RE: MomFaves badge or button - they're being designed and will be available before the launch on Feb 11th. We're also creating a MomFaves widget builder so moms will have something fun to put on their site or blog that shows their recently faves, most popular, etc...Thanks for the idea! Keep'em coming team! ~Josh

Do you have a MomFaves badge or button? It's a great way for people to be able to see that we are members. If we can link the logo to the site then people who visit on our blogs can be directed here.

MomFaves

July 27, 2008 at 08:50 PM

Ok Y'all! We've made the following improvements to the site: 1. You can set your profile privacy setting to control who can view it (click "Profile" then "edit"); 2. We are now sending ONE daily email with a summary of activity that relates to you or your girlfriends; 3. We created a "Mom" directory so it's easier to find and search for moms; 4. You can now invite someone to join a group you belong to when viewing their profile (below their picture, click "Invite to Group"). There's more around the corner so stay tuned and keep MomFavin'!!! ~~Josh

Another question - How do I invite friends? Is there a way to send an invite to "outsiders"? I haven't figured that out! We've just done it via regular e-mail.

Caylie's mama

July 26, 2008 at 04:23 PM

I haven't gotten any e-mails in quite awhile from Momfaves - does that mean that I'm just a loser, and no one's faving my stuff, or did something happen to the e-mail option? (PS - I'm okay if it's the former! :))

Have you guys ever thought about chat rooms for this site? I'm not even sure if chat rooms is the right word. Just thought it might be a nice way for moms to ask quesitons, get advice, find support...etc

MomFaves

June 11, 2008 at 10:53 AM

MommyLuv asked about instant messaging. I love the idea! It's a fairly complex feature to develop and would take some time/$$ to implement. I will add this to the list of future features. We are working on a way for moms to choose the option of having only 1 email per day (like a digest email) that will include all of their activity in one message. Is that something any of you would like the option of?~~Josh

Mommy Colburn

June 11, 2008 at 09:07 AM

I'm receiving messages saying so-n-so would like to be added as my friend but then nothing is added on my profile from that person. Is this a glitch or am I overlooking something. There isn't anything attached in the email I receive either?

MommyLuv

June 11, 2008 at 08:38 AM

Is there a way we can instant message? Stacie and I were sending messages back and forth for a couple minutes and then I had like 25 emails.

CostcoMama

June 10, 2008 at 11:46 PM

Thanks for the heads up Caylie's mama! I'll have the developers look into this again and will let you know.~~Josh

Hi guys! I'm having issues with my kids' birthdays - they're all coming up wrong... a couple of months off. Brock's is showing "unknown". Of course I know his birthday! :) Is it just a glitch on my profile? I even deleted them, and redid them, and it's the same.

MomFaves

June 5, 2008 at 10:41 AM

Today we resolved the issue with uploading photos. It indeed was not allowing uploads for moms using Internet Explorer. Thank you for letting us know! It should work fine now.~~Take care, Josh

Suz

June 4, 2008 at 06:32 PM

I have worked on uploading photos more than once. I have tried one photo, several photos. I have waited for the "done" on the bottom of the screen. Then nothing happens. I was able to upload my profile photo. I can create an album and it says I have not added photos.

MomFaves

June 4, 2008 at 04:19 PM

Thank you for the heads up about trouble uploading photos. Our team is looking into why this is happening. We think the "Please wait while your pictures upload" message is not appearing and moms are giving up waiting. Depending on the size of each and how many of the photos you upload, it may take up to a minute. I'll let you know for sure...Hope this helps!~~Josh (Founder)

Suz

June 4, 2008 at 02:14 PM

Any word on being able to upload photos? I have tried quite a few time and still can't add any albums only my profile photo.

Suz

June 4, 2008 at 02:03 PM

Another suggestion, a place to download PDF or Word documents. I would love to share wellness/nutrition articles with everyone.

MomFaves

June 3, 2008 at 11:06 AM

Baking Beauty suggested being able to print recipes. Thanks for the idea! I submitted it to the MomFaves development team today, actually, I requested a print function on ALL faves in the detail section. It's ideas like this that we really appreciate in this early phase of launch. Thanks again!~~Josh

MomFaves

June 3, 2008 at 10:58 AM

Ali! Thanks for the zip code search suggestion. We implemented it yesterday. Obviously, the value of this feature will increase as the site content in your area increases. Right now, the zip search will only include results from moms in the zip code you enter. Let me know what you think of it. Thanks again! ~~Josh

MomFaves

May 31, 2008 at 11:32 PM

Suz asked about the ability to submit a fave under more than one sub-category. Although not available now, this is a great idea that we will take into consideration. In the meantime, we recommend picking the one that most closely matches your submission. If your fave does fit more than one category (i.e. wellness and medical), remember that it is included under a single fave topic (i.e. CAUSE). So, whether you choose to submit a wellness or a medical related cause, moms looking for either will most likely discover your fave because they are related.

MomFaves

May 31, 2008 at 04:32 PM

Mommy Colburn asked about the ability to search for friends on MomFaves. I can see how this would be an extremely important tool, especially as the number of moms increases. I will work with the developers on creating and adding this..will let you know about progress soon. Great feedback, keep it coming!~~Josh

MomFaves

May 31, 2008 at 04:25 PM

Sandie asked about adding "game" to the list of Entertainment category...I'll add it today and it should show up by Mon/Tuesday. Great idea!~~Josh

Suz

May 30, 2008 at 10:58 PM

Hi, I'm new to this. Is there a way to select category options as more that one? I was wondering some things may fit more that one category.

Mommy Colburn

May 30, 2008 at 05:57 PM

I had a friend invite me to become her friend, but don't see her name anywhere. Is there a way to search for friends on MomFav? Why isn't she showing up on my list? Thanks!

k&k's mom

May 30, 2008 at 04:59 PM

Hi everyone, As I was submitting my favorite entertainment ROCKBAND, I noticed under category the options were movie, music and TV. Maybe "game" and "activity" could be added.

CostcoMama

May 30, 2008 at 08:58 AM

Mamabyrd asked about us being able to delete faves. Currently, faves cannot be deleted, just edited. To get around deleting it, you can edit the one you wanted to delete with information on a new fave in that category. Hope this helps..

MomFaves

May 29, 2008 at 04:22 PM

Jill asked about sending multiple email invitations. That too is something we are working on now, including the ability to select mutiple emails from any hotmail/yahoo/gmail account. I'll let you know when were about to release it. Thanks Jill!

MomFaves

May 29, 2008 at 04:01 PM

We've received reports of difficulty uploading photos to profile, looking into it and we'll let you know once we figure it out and fix it!

MomFaves

May 29, 2008 at 02:59 PM

Great question Ali! We are actually working on this feature now and will be implementing soon, ability to search faves by zip, including radius searching. I'll let you know when we include it.~~Josh

Mommy Colburn

May 29, 2008 at 02:56 PM

Is there a way to send out momfaves invitations to several email addresses at once or do we have to do it one at a time?

Ali Savage Johnson

May 28, 2008 at 11:09 PM

So, I'm not computer literate at all...is there a place where I can search for MomFaves by city or zip code? It's probably right in front of me and I just don't see it :-P Ali

KCJ

May 27, 2008 at 10:41 PM

Oh and I have received invitations before but none were readable just figured out tonight that I could get the link by hitting reply.

KCJ

May 27, 2008 at 10:39 PM

One invitation was from you and one from Rebecca.

MomFaves

May 27, 2008 at 10:02 PM

Thanks Kerrie -- was the invitation you received from me? Have you received Girlfriend invitations before that were readable and successful?~~Josh

KCJ

May 27, 2008 at 07:45 PM

hey there I got an e-mail inviting me to be a girlfriend but the e-mail comes up blank, I only see the message and the link if I hit reply. I have a yahoo account so I don't know if that is the issue.

KCJ

May 22, 2008 at 09:53 PM

WOW! That is a long answer, and thank you I get it now. When the top ten changed I didn't realize it was showing the top ten for the group when I was on the group page! Thanks for the clarification and my apologies for making you write that answer out! :)

I am having issues uploading pictures. It says there is a global processing error.

MomFaves

May 21, 2008 at 04:08 PM

Good question Kerrie (KCJ)!! We are still tweaking the algorithm that generates the Top 10 List on the homepage. Currently, there are a # of things that influence it and the goal is to keep it fresh and changing so the list doesn't become stagnate (which may not seem like a big issue now, but when we have LOTS of moms submitting LOTS of faves it becomes a problem b/c of the likelihood that the top 10 will NEVER CHANGE b/c of its exposure on the homepage. Currently some of the factors that influence it are the total # of faves and also how fast the item is being faved by other members within a certain time period (today we just switched that time period from 15 minutes to 1 day to see if that helps). The idea is to expose the Most Popular or "Hottest" faves for all topics in the homepage top 10 list. Also, the home page top 10 is calculated differently than your profile top 10 (which is based on total # of faves alone). What do you think of all that? Any thoughts? We will continue to watch this issue so that

KCJ

May 20, 2008 at 10:28 PM

Hi Josh and Rebecca it looks great and I can't wait to share it with my friends! Does the top 10 go by the number of Faves an item has? It looks that way on the page I am in currently but not at the home page.

MomFaves

May 19, 2008 at 10:58 AM

WE NEED YOUR HELP!!!!! This is a big week for Rebecca and I as we are preparing to officially launch the first version of MomFaves.com to every mom we know (and every mom they know). Your submissions, feedback and word of mouth will really help us make this thing work. I'm sending you an invitation to join the group "MomFaves Feedback Team" so you can share things more easily with us. Take care and keep MomFavin'! ~~~Josh

MomFaves

May 19, 2008 at 10:58 AM

Thank you Sandie!!!! As a result of your feedback, we added the ability to make it easier to add a Girlfriend when viewing her profile...just click "Add as girlfriend" under her picture and the system auto-generates and sends an invitation.

MomFaves

May 19, 2008 at 10:56 AM

Thank you Krissy!!!! As a result of your feedback we added "Home" to the left of "My Faves" to make it easier to know how to return to viewing all favorites; fixed the "Is this environmentally friendly? options; and will soon be adding the ability to search faves by zip/radius.

CostcoMama

May 13, 2008 at 02:58 PM

Is the email working yet? - I am getting excited!!
