Categories: Interface Upgrade Planned

Categories are a little-known feature in Stickymap. When you log in and click a location, you can select “categorize” to bring you to the categorization screen. From here, you can place locations into different categories which are labeled by text (or “tags” as we call them). After doing some studies, we’ve concluded that the interface for categories is a little bit hard to follow, so we’ve decided to try to simplify it for our users.

It’s important to get people using this because it will improve our site’s search capability and general organization. It also allows users to create their own maps that are subsets of Stickymap.

Right now, users need to mark off a series of check boxes, and fill out some text boxes. If you put a tag in a text box, it won’t be added to the marker unless you click the check box. I believe that’s been tripping up some of our users.

We’re in the final stages of preparing a release for a new interface. Let us know what would get you to use this feature.

    Should the text “categorize” feature be used for a broad catagory or a more specific catagory?

  2. Max says:

    People have used the categories for a variety of different scopes. There’s “places I’ve lived” “restaurants”, but you can also be more specific with something like “top rated theaters in New York City”.

    You can then make a map (which is a subset of Stickymap) of a particular category, so the scope of the category should reflect that map.

  3. […] few weeks ago, I posted about our categories feature and asked for feedback on how to make it more understandable to use.  This led to an interface […]
