Sharing something, I need to type my friends names MANUALLY!!!

"Type friends’ names or emails above, separated by commas."

Are you joking, guys??? No way to insert friend's names automatically??? Am I supposed to remember all my friends nicknames or copy/paste them? OMG.

you can bomb the world to pieces
but you can't bomb it into peace

I don't know if it is some crazy antispam measure or just bug, but, anyways, it's overkill. What about users who have dozens of friends?

If you start typing in the box then your user's name will autocomplete, so you don't have to type in the whole name - just a few letters then select from the drop-down. It also autocompletes based on both username and the name a user enters in their profile, so you don't even have to remember their Last.fm username.

autocomplete isn't enough. what if you want to share with all your friends?

If you have more than 5 friends, autocomplete isn't a solution.

Yes, totally agreed:

It's really a must that we can see ALL friends here like in the old version!!!

I am old, I can't remember all the different nicknames of my friends... ;-)

And i can't remember all their real names too... :-(

Yes, but what if I want to recommend something to, for instance... 30 friends? Do you really believe it's a good idea to start typing 30 names??? Are you serious? How am I supposed to remember all their nicknames? It's extremely inconvenient!!!

You don't have to start typing you can just press the down arrow and you get a drop down list of all your friends. I know it doesn't solve the all friends thing, but it does help with having to start typing 30 names.

Cool, did not know that, is this a new feature here?

Just one point:

In the drop down list the friends are listed with "realname (nickname)". It would be better if it is listed with "nickname (realname)", because the nickname is the "more known" name than the realname!

What do you think?

akrde: I agree, the nickname should be listed first since it's the name you use here.

Disappointed racoon is no longer disappointed with new design.

Me too would like to be able to recommend to all friends again.

And something I have been waiting for for two weeks now is to be able to recommend to groups. it is not possible anymore. That was the reason I started my "Belgian Electronics" group. Because it was such a good tool to promote music. Is there gonna be a solution for that?
