    Should not do this 1 cheer

    i would prefer not to have my entries searchable. i use this site to keep track of my goals, to ask for help from other folks, and to write honestly and openly about my progress… but i do this anonymously and no one that i know outside of 43things knows my username and i’d prefer to keep it that way… several friends know i post on here and i feel it would be too easy for an overly curious person to track someone down if user entries were openly searchable.

    IF this feature is implemented, i personally would prefer the option to not have my entries be searchable as a feature so that i don’t have to go through and edit and delete old entries and start filtering my commments.



    Should do this

    Many old-timers have written enormous amount of useful content on 43things. It would be great if users could search for text in their own entries, or even better, in any user’s entries.
