Happy holidays to everybody! I just want to let you know, that the semantics of the term “open story” changed: It’s no longer a story that requires action from you – it now means a story that requires action in general.
I think it’s more useful this way.

We’re getting there. I should do more travelling. I am just more productive on planes ;-)
Today’s announcement includes changable default currencies and changable primary email addresses.
First things first: The primary email address thing is not a big deal and it’s a shame that it hasn’t been there before. As you know, you can register several email addresses with cyclr.com – and you should do that so that other people can enter new stories more easily. Now, your primary email address is the one that all your cyclr.com notifications are sent to. You probably want to use an email address that you check frequently. Just hover over your registered addresses and click on make primary to do so. Easy, huh?
So, what about that currency thing? The good thing is: you can change your default currency now. The bad thing? Well, it doesn’t change much (yet)! Your overall balances as well as balances with friends are still calculated 1:1 no matter which currency your stories are in. Yes, I am still working on that and yes, there will be a neat API powered solution that does conversion on daily updated exchange rates. Meanwhile, please make sure that you set your currency on your Settings page. cyclr.com will already save the correct currency for your stories – this enables you to have automatic currency conversion for all your old obligations once the feature is implemented.

Did you ever get lost on cyclr.com? Have you had too many stories to keep track of your open items?
These times are over! cyclr.com just became a little bit better: it has a new and convenient listing of open stories – just those that require action from you.
And I’m sure, you will love the tiny open stories symbol in the upper right, won’t you?

It took you guys quite some time to convince me that we do need that feature, but here it comes.
I see that some of you want to get even before leaving to another place or after coming home from a trip and stuff.
But please keep in mind that the main idea behind cyclr.com is to keep tabs open and have them cycled instead of paying them back!
So how does it work? Just go to your people view and you’ll find new links. Clicking on a friend’s name will bring up a stories view which shows just the stories you have with this person. ‘Got it’ and ‘Pay’ let you close a tab.
If you have questions, comments or find bugs, please don’t hesitate to contact me!

We finally got SCHWAG! I know, you love it as much as I do, so drop me a line or stop by to get yours.
Claim your very own cyclr.com sticker and place it on the lid of your laptop to tell the world you use cyclr. And then, leave a comment here once you did, of course! :-)
