Global Activity

It would be nice if there was a global activity section on the home page, like on Sporcle (quiz website)'s front page: http://www.sporcle.com/

You could see the latest project views and the creators of them, and it would allow more good projects to be found.

I think that this would be a great improvement to the Scratch website.

Re: Global Activity

I agree, but people could kill other Scratchers. (Or at least stalk them.)

People would keep viewing their own...

I suppose they could... it depends, however, how much activity there is on Scratch. If there's enough, it wouldn't matter that much, as tons of people will be viewing other projects at the same time.

Not really. Even if it just had the town, it would be near impossible because there are tons of people in each town/city.

What are you talking about? Global Activity isn't about where they live, it just shows what the latest projects viewed are. It has nothing to do with what city or country people live in.

EDIT: Sporcle kind of changed their front page, but what I would want on Scratch is for people to see what the latest projects viewed are.

Re: Global Activity

Also, if you're worried about people just viewing their own projects a million times, then how about just showing the latest projects your friends viewed?

Re: Global Activity

There used to be a map which showed projects uploaded from around the world, but was deleted because it gave away people's countries.
You can see what country they're in by going to their page anyways. >_>

Once again, not what I'm talking about, but that's also pretty cool.
