Just had a few ideas after buying here at DG that I wanted to throw out there for the buyers -

1. watch feature - I would love to be able to mark some plants to look at later for buying or comparing without having to go back through everything.

2. compare feature - much like EBay it is just a snap shot that you cna line up and look at the diffrent plants and offerings and compare without printing or taking tons of notes.

I agree, both are terrific ideas. I especially would like a "watch list" feature.

I'll third the "watch" list.

Many times I want to research a plant first and then come back to try to find that item. A watch list would assist the sellers too as I get distracted with other items and never make it back to their item... 8 ))

For the time being you can always bookmark the pages of
interest in your browser. Just make a folder there for
"watched items" while Dave considers making a watch feature.

It really is a challenge to find your way back once you leave
an item so a Watch feature would be useful.

I tried to look up musa and trying to compare... it gets hard to ahve that many windows open - then to look to see what else they have to offer and such - a watch feature would be so much faster.

Oh that would be so nice to have a watch list. I have seen some things that I wanted to go back later and look again, and I can't because I end up forgetting where I saw them.Memory is getting bad with the old age LOL

Terry told me about the little yellow folder in the upper right hand side of every page. click that and you can tag the page - name your tag watchlist and make it private.

you can easily find it again under 'my tools >> tags'
