          #An Attempt to Get More Users
          I think having an account on Tubalr is awesome, so recently I’ve been going back to the drawing board, trying to think of ways to make user accounts something people want. The only thing I could think of was to try and upsell user accounts on the front page and to rework how creating and adding videos to playlists works. So I did both. The front page now has some fancy new copy and right in the center it reads: “Create custom playlists, making sure your favorite videos are at your every need.” That was the easy part, I then set out to rework the custom playlist work flow.The old flow to add a song to a playlist was to open a dialog, and click a few buttons to either add the song a playlist or create a new playlist. It was pretty bulky looking and annoying. If you didn’t already have a playlist to put the song in, you’d have to make it, then click the newly created playlist to actually add the song to it.Now, the flow goes a little smoother and works likes this:Open the “Add to Playlist” dropdown.Now you either can click a playlist you’ve created in the past or click “(+) Create New Playlist”.If you click a previously created playlist, the song will be added to the clicked playlist and you’ll see a notification.If you click “(+) Create New Playlist”, a form will replace the dropdown and you can enter a new playlist name and click “Create”(which will create the new playlist and add the song to it).That’s it, I think it’s much simpler and matches the updated ui a bit better. I hope you guys like the changes too, if you have any suggestions or problems, shoot an email to listen.to.tubalr@gmail.com.
