Is this thing on?

Categories: News   |   5 feedbacks »

Hi there, and welcome to the Online Buddies blog. There's just so much interesting stuff going on here that it would be an absolute travesty for us not to share some of the juicy behind-the-scenes tidbits with our adoring fan base.

But seriously, folks... life at Online Buddies, much like any other tech company, is fast paced, cutting-edge, exciting and challenging (and if this sounds like fun to you, check out some of our job openings). We're glad you've taken the time to stop by and learn more about us.

My name is Tim, Product Manager here at OLB, and I wanted to set up a blog for a few reasons. Firstly, we get lots of suggestions from our users. Thank you, and keep 'em coming. I know that a lot of times, suggestions are sent in to giant companies and subsequently ignored and tossed aside, but I can assure you, that's not the case here. So, fire off your suggestions to our team at suggestions@online-buddies.com. While I can't guarantee I can write pithy and amusing replies to every message, I can promise that the result of your suggestions play a part in determining what we plan to offer.

So, about that whole "what we're going to offer" stuff... a lot is going on behind the scenes in all of our departments. Our site design has remained fairly consistent over the years, but our supporting technology has grown tremendously to keep up with our worldwide expansion. Even though there aren't flashy changes every few weeks, rest assured that every department here at Online Buddies is working to keep MANHUNT the best place to meet men online. And, with over 40,000 members online most nights, you sure have a wide selection to choose from!

Watch this blog space for interesting tidbits of information and updates as to what's happening here at Online Buddies. Thanks for visiting and we'll talk again soon, OK?

Hey Tim... A few months ago I saw a thing on here (maybe an e-mail?) that you were considering including chat rooms as part of Manhunt. Is this still a possibility?

Love the site. Everything you all do only makes it better. Thanks.

Hey there... We haven't announced any plans for chat rooms, however we are in the process of developing more ways to allow our members to communicate with each other. Chat rooms did come up during our conversations, as well as a bunch of other spiffy ideas. I'll be sure to include your Chat Room feedback and the feedback other members as part of our future discussions.

Thanks for your kind words!

Hey Timmy - Open up the personal profile capabilities. Let people add some html or some media. Make it a facebook/utube for men. I think more personal profiles may attract a lot of guys into that sort of thing. Seems to be very popular with other sites!!! Feel free to ask me for help. :) I'm .net but getting into php now.
