UI Feedback on blogs

[koehntopp]

Just some first impressions on the blog UI:

- when I click on "Follow", am I following the user, the blog, the topic or the tags...? UI ambiguous.

- I would not look for the "Like" button next to the "Share" buttons, maybe that should be at the end of the article, too? Like and Share don't seem related to me

- I would expect to get to Tammy's profile by clicking on the Avatar. That does not work, I need to click on thew name (which is also not recognizable as a link). Not intuitive.

The bottom part of the UI also looks incoherent to me:

- "Alert Moderator" would probably be better placed on top next to the date/views, it's also not recognizable as a link

- maybe it's just me, but an empty text box would be more inviting towards a comment

- "share and follow" again mixes two distinct actions with no clear relation to what exactly they do - what is it that I share, some just are links to a page (slideshare)

- are we sure using bit.ly on all of those is a good idea? We really should use SAP's own URL shortener, for data privacy, security and resilience purposes (what if bit.ly shuts down?)

Let me add to that... I'd place the "Comment" button on top of the existing comments sections, because on popular posts there may be many comments and as-is I would have to scroll all the way down to comment... #my2cents
