One thing I plan to add to Snitz in my own version is a "referer" type bit of code that will let me see who is referring users to my site. So, on the Email This To A Friend feature, I would send a link like
http://www.mywebsite.com/forum.asp?FORUM_ID=77&CAT_ID=5&REFERINGUSER=183
where REFERINGUSER would be the uid of my registered user. In this way, when users hit the site, I can look for that referingUser querystring, and save to a database if it exists. This way, I can thank registered users for referring people to my site, and also keep statistics about click thrus - how many people are hitting my site BECAUSE they were referred to it. Is this type of content worth trying to build into the entire forum? Anyone else interested?
Sincerely,
Bryan Ax
