Are you still experiencing this issue?
I would imagine that there was an intermittent network error that broke your connection. This can happen in networks and can be aggravating when it happens when a large file is being transferred. If you try shift refreshing it should help.

Hello Mike,
Love all the ideas here. I’ve been wanting to find time to go through this and reply.
[Mike Cohen] “How about a “favorites” feature. You can click a button on any post, demo reel, article, even ads, to go into your personal fave list, accessible from your profile page.”
This is a nice idea. There’s been some suggestions about a “save this” button which is similar and is on the to do list.
[Mike Cohen] “”Share this” button – lets you send an email to a friend with either a link or the full text of a post, without having to manually compose an email.”
I could see this feature becoming available to unmoderated users.
[Mike Cohen] “On the COW home page, you have a Hot Threads box. I don’t know how these threads are selected – is it by traffic or manually or otherwise?”
It’s by recency along with number of replies.
[Mike Cohen] “If not by traffic, it might be interesting to be able to look at a Hot Threads or Trending Now display of threads actually getting the most traffic on the site. “
I agree. I’ve thought about doing something like this for awhile. I’m kind of waiting for the spark of thought to show me the best way to pull it off.
[Mike Cohen] “Along the lines of Google Analytics visitors info, it might be neat to see stats (either real time or periodic) of use by country, state, planet etc. Possibly too server intensive to provide such a fringe feature for a small audience, but might be used to promote the worldwide use aspect of the site.”
There are a few metrics which we use privately one of which is Google Analytics. I’m not sure if this data will become public on the site.
[Mike Cohen] ” how about the ability to post blog entries via a text message or email. “
Good idea.
There’s a lot of new features we’re working on. One that will launching in the next few days is a new Facebook and Twitter connection in the Extra tab of your Account Settings. This connection will allow you to post to Facebook and Twitter seamlessly as you post to the COW by using checkboxs that will appear when you post.

We re-encode all our videos for iPad, iPhone, Android and other mobile devices. And yes they will even play on your Mac too =o
-
We just added the ability to upload videos as private videos.
These videos will only be able to be viewed by a direct link that you can give your clients. They will also be viewable by you on your profile when you are logged in.
This should be a good feature for people trying to do what you are speaking of. Uploading videos that will only be viewed by individuals you select.

Your code didn’t come through. Please paste your code in the box, highlight it and press the code button for it to convert it to the right format for the site.

Instead of using target=’_blank’ to open your pop up window you want to use onClick=”window.open();”
Modifying your code it would look something like:
<p><a href="javascript:void(0);" onClick="window.open('media/gospelplaylist/gospelplayer.html','music_pop_up_win','height=500,width=500');">GOSPEL</a></p><p><a href="javascript:void(0);" onClick="window.open('media/hiphopplaylist/hiphopplayer.html','music_pop_up_win','height=500,width=500');">HIPHOP - R&B - REGGAE</a></p>
<p><a href="javascript:void(0);" onClick="window.open('media/zoukplaylist/zoukplayer.html','music_pop_up_win','height=500,width=500');">ZOUK - KONPA - LATIN</a></p>
<p><a href="javascript:void(0);" onClick="window.open('media/jazzplaylist/jazzplayer.html','music_pop_up_win','height=500,width=500');">LOVE SONGS - JAZZ - BLUES</a></p>
More on window.open can be found here.
