As usual a developers comes out with a great app & conveniently leaves us out. Hopefully with enough of us clicking the "I have this question too" button we can get it.

i want to send microsoft's mango team an email advocating the feature of text wrap in mango when you zoom in in internet explorer. what's the best way to contact them about this?
also, if anyone lwants this feature in mango, add your names to this thread so we can add greater voice and support for this feature, thanks.
note to moderators: this is a double post intended to reach a greater audience in this forum for support of this feature. please do not delete. thank you!
maybe tweet them @wp7dev -
I will have to do this myself, as this is important to me. Also, I supposed I will include a need to swipe away cards to close an app in multi-tasking. That makes more sense than not being able to do it at all in that view.

hi, tiny.. thanks for getting to me. i dont have twitter, so i cant tweet them. is there a better and more effective way of contacting them?
Not that I personally know of, but I tweeted them about the same issue - if that is any consolation. However, the more, the merrier. Then again, maybe it would be more fruitful to ask one of these people with the beta to see if it is present in their build of IE9 - as to see if the devs need to be bothered at all.
On topic please.....
The OP is asking for contact details, not which features you would like to see in Mango.
If you have no intentions of answering the question then your in the wrong place.

Developers at XDA.
I’m sure many of you have heard of the Occupy Wall Street movement. Over the past week I’ve become involved and have determined that there is a need that could most efficiently be met through technology and since I know little of developing I’m looking for some assistance.
Here is the problem:
Protesters are not allowed to communicate with a PA system. This means that when we try to organize we need to scream everything out to each other and pass the message along. As you can image, in the game of telephone things get distorted and misunderstood. We need some way to relay messages to anyone who needs it quickly.
Solution:
I believe that an app would be the best way to facilitate this. While there could be updates online, that’s slow and requires people who want to post something online to go to the blog. It also means that we would have to constantly check. It also means that someone would have to type long messages in through a touch screen. Not efficient.
My Idea is for the app comes from seeing the app Coco voice for the iphone. It’s a service where you can speak into your phone and like a text message it sends that vocal message to said recipient. Now if you took that same kind of recording idea, and instead of sending it directly to a phone number, uploaded it to a main server and people subscribed to that specific “group” (or what have you) would receive a push notification about a new message. Then everyone would be able to get important information about what’s happening, what we’re doing. And especially where to avoid clashes with police. A text element for quick messages would also be great.
What’s in it for you:
1) You’d be helping a movement that hopefully you believe in.
2) The use of this application could go far beyond just this movement. It’s sort of vocal tweeting phone to phone. Subscribe to a group and be informed. People could record a cut of a song and send it directly or just say hello to all your loved ones at once while on vacation. This is a legitimate idea that has widespread application.
3) This will quickly become one of the more downloaded apps. There were 15-20,000 people at the NYC protest last night. The protests are also sprouting up in over 10 different cities across the US. Then there will be people that just want to know what happening. An immediate wide audience to launch the application and gain publicity.
4) You will get mad props
Is there anyone out there who is willing to put in some time in helping to develop an application to help facilitate communication among protesters? This would have to be a free app at least until the protests are over. Preferably it would be both iOs and android compatible. Please let me know so we can talk through some ideas, specifics, timelines, and what not.
Also let me know if you think this is possible or not. Or if you have any other good ideas. Let’s get this moving.
ps - let's try to keep this from getting political. We do not need to argue about the protest here. If you are interested great help out, if not then just move on to the next thread. Thanks in advance.
LoL. Really? What are you end goals? What do you want changed? Who makes the rules?

What about a tweeter like app? But instead of status updates in text they are mp3s or wav files

I think that would work as well. Definitely open to suggestions that might make this easier for developers. Ant interest?

I would love to talk to you about this, but this is not the right place for that discussion. Pm me if you actually have interest, I have real answers. I just know this forum was not made for this purpose so I won't do it here.
It would be very honorable for some Devs to spend a little bit of time on this. I could see this app on headlines. Would be a good way for some Dev to get exposure too.

I hope this falls inside the rules for this section.
I now have yet another reason to be jealous of iPhone users. This does not often happen, but at times it still does. Cinemagram, is an app for building cinemagraphs right on your phone. Here is a tumbler feed with supposed examples of what the app can create. http://cinemagram.tumblr.com/
I contacted the developers of this app, Factyle Inc, and did my best bit of groveling for an Android version. It seems I wont need to be jealous for too long. Here is the reply I received back in a matter of minutes.
"LOL!!!
We'll get there soon "
If you want this on Android as much as I do, please email the devs and let them know there is an audience for this app on Android.
I dont want to post up their email, so take a look at the bottom of their site for their email link. http://cinemagr.am/
Great idea ...
171 views, but has anyone actually sent them an email?
we have many developers on here and cinemagram has a posting on there site looking for android developers. http://cinemagr.am/home/jobs
I want a quiz app to use as a revision aid. Here's what I want it to do...
The app will have two main functions... creating questions and then asking them.
For the creating questions part I just want a question box and an answer box, into which I can enter text
For the asking questions part I want the question to be displayed on screen and for the answer to be revealed when I click on a button. On the answer reveal screen there should be another button to move to the next question when I am ready to do so.
The questions need to come randomly, and not repeat until all questions have been asked.
I want to have multiple "categories" into which I can add questions. I also want the ability to test myself with questions from a specific category as well as from all categories.
I plan on using the app to learn drugs and their mechanism of action. I will create categories such as antibiotics and anti-hypertensives. Within each category I will add drugs that I need to know. Then when it comes to testing myself I will simply be presented with the drug name (question), think to myself what the answer is, then reveal the answer by clicking a button. Once I am satisfied I can then move to the next drug by clicking a button. By naming the boxes "questions" and answers" the app could be used to test anything and not just drug names.
I have looked for such an app on the Play Store and failed to find one that meets all these requirements. If anyone knows of one I would appreciate the help. Otherwise, could anyone help me by creating this app. Ideally it will be for free, but I am prepared to pay if needs be.
Bump... there must be some app developers around xda. Willing to pay.
Final bump and I'll give up. Sorry if you think I'm spamming. It's just threads like this move on from the first page so quick.
I can add it to my to-do list, but I can't guarantee a speedy ETA.

That would be much appreciated! Any help is better than no help! Thanks
I feel like a bit of an idiot but it turns out there's loads of apps that do this, lol. All I needed to do is search for flashcards. I didn't think of this before as it's not a British term really. Anyways, thank you.
It's fine. I'm Canadian so sometimes my slang confuses my friends.
I'll still develop it anyway for the practice. If there are any options you would like to see, feel free to message me!
Hello!
How can I get rid of all of those things that have been of no use to me on the right 1/4 of the screen on this site, to include "XDA PORTAL POSTS" etc ...? I don't want all of that! It makes it more difficult to see and find what I'm looking for - to me it's just wasted space squeezing the useful space. I guess I'm talking about "Portal View" or something. If I just want to look at the forums and threads, etc ..., how do I do that? This seems to come and go in the past. I guess I'm just not smart enough to figure this one out on my own.
Thank you:good:
