activation email message optimization I used your exact message in a modal. The registered-but-not-activated users dropped to 5-10% and before this they where around 25-30%. Your advice was simply superb. Thanks again. |

activation email message optimization All these are great suggestions. Thanks a lot. In particilar the 4th in which my system currently suffers (new activation or password reset links cancel the old ones and this can be very bad for the users). |

activation email message optimization Fantastic! I love the rewording and the reasoning behind it. Regarding the modal, it used to look like stackexchange's or twitter's style of messages (100% width, strong background, fixed positioning on top) but I changed it to modal to grab the user's attention and it actually did improve my conversions (from registration to activation). |

activation email message optimization BTW the active "click here" link is not possible since I send text/plain email (because I want 100% delivery). |

friendly version of date formats Today 10am and 4 minutes ago are great. I use them as well. In this question I'm only interested in dates though. |

friendly version of date formats Thanks for bringing <time> to my attention. Edit: Oops... that's HTML5. Until I do the switch I think I'll use a microformats alternative: microformats.org/wiki/datetime-design-pattern |

friendly version of date formats By OS you mean operating system? This is a webapp so I don't have any access to that. Also I don't have a language/country setting, just the timezone. Maybe in the future I'll grab the country via IP->location. |

friendly version of date formats It's a global application which relies heavily on the user working with calendar and dates. That's why I most probably need this option in the user settings which is something that most users will never see eventually since I plan on auto-picking the best option upon registration using ip-to-country resolution. |

user settings: one option alters the help text of another I know (10k SO user here:) and that's what I'll do eventually but I'd still like some opinions on the question as originally posed regarding the dynamic help text. |

friendly version of date formats The expanded version will only be used in email communication which needs to (somehow) contain the day. What would you suggest? |
