We are happy to let you know you can now use multiple new features on cdfreaks.com.

  • We’ve added an improved search option on the news section
  • We’ve updated the members section so it’s easier to stay updated about your favourite products and let us and other visitors know what products you like and dislike (add your products on your members page).
  • To help others make better decisions what product to buy we launched a feature to add user reviews about the products you have. Your review will be much appreciated.
  • We’ve introduced a karma system. This system (as most of you might know) will rank users according to their added value to the website. If you want to see your karma ranking, check your profile or take a look at the karma overview. Your karma will be calculated on the basis of your participation on CDFreaks. You won’t be ranked by other users and can’t rate other users yourself.
  • We’ve added a lot of new products and new categories to our hardware section, now including over 70.000+ products. We wanted to make sure we could offer you as much up to date information as possible and you were able to add all your desired product to your list.
Be sure to check out your own improved profile.We’ve tested all of our features as much as possible but if you spot a bug we missed, please let us know by adding a reaction to this article!
 
We would like to hear what features you are missing and would like to see on cdfreaks.com and what you think about the current options.

To add products to your list do the following:
  • Make sure you logged in or else register (see link in the top right corner)
  • Go to the hardware section and search for one of the product you have or you would like to have
  • On the product page search for the buttons "i have this product" or "i want this product" and click on it.
Now you have the product added to your members profile and you can easily stay updated about this product (or give your humble opinion )

Cool!

I think the karma system is interesting, even though I'm not in the top 100!

Also nice : you can also see which other users have the same product(s) as yourself. E.g. check my profile: http://www.cdfreaks.com/member/624/ , you can see 13 other users have the LG GBW-H20L I want
