I have done extensive work on the new item page since my blog post. This update has taken longer than I though due to extending this work to profile pages for people as well as items.

You can see the update pages here: Item page, person page. The main new features are:

- Ability to instantly post content without refreshing the page
- Simplified structure of popular content on the left of the page, new content of the right of the page.
- Better designed 'popular movies/tv/music' section where you can flip between popular or top rated or recent.

I would like to release this within a week, if you have any suggestions or comments please post here!

One suggestion I'd have it to make the feed shorter, it makes each page very long! How about restricting the feed list to 15 items or so, then you can expand it yourself by looking at next page etc?

I'd also personally stick trailers under lists and reviews, but that's just me. I take it pressing on those coloured buttons takes you to a new page solely for lists, or reviews, etc?

I will make the update feed shorter, although the district 9 page is actually shorter than the current on due to the reviews.

I will change the background so it fades into a light grey/blue rather than white.

Yes the big buttons replace the current vertical links in the blue box

The rest is just some personal needs i would like to see; like a year filter in Movies page and a list choosing view like for example they use in listology.

Year filter will be coming. What do you mean list choosing view?

I think the new format looks great!

One suggestion I have though is on the item page I'd like to know how many of my friends have/played/watched the item.

So maybe somewhere under Add to list it could say something like:

Add to list: *Watched* Want to watch
Friend status: Watched (2) Want to watch (1)

And then I could click on the (2) and quickly figure out which two of my friends watched it.

This would be especially handy for Books, Games, DVD item pages as I could see which of my friends own something that I might want to borrow.

Hey tom... my two cent:
# shorter feed list
# showing 10 actors not just 8
# smaller video thumbs; showing just the thumbs in a 2x2 grid

I would LOVE that you inserted something like "disรงus" or gravatar comments... It would be a must for me.

You mean disqus? I don't see how that fits in with the item page. If you mean for comments on lists/reviews it would be hard to integrate with the rest of the site e.g. update feeds/notifications etc.

Like the others I'll second having less updates items :)

But I'd like to see Reviews have more prominence on an item page.
Reviews should be on the right side and updates on the left.
