Version 1.0.2.3: Market Analysis

I have added two new hot links to the listing detail page, Broad and Narrow.

Both invoke Prosper's new Market Performance page. Choosing Broad specifies the search criteria to be the listing loan amount +/- $2000. Narrow adds group and homeowner classification. Adding the option 'Borrowers who are group members' if the borrower is a member of a group and include only Homeowners if the borrower is a homeowner.

I have some plans to expand this type of analysis, taking into consideration extended credit report information. Stay tuned.

Version 1.0.2.2: Minor UI change and Notes fix

When using the Notes feature, some of you have received an error message about a missing directory. Sorry about that. Of course the directory exists on my computer. I have fixed this issue to ensure the directory is created. Thanks for the feedback.

I have also introduced a minor UI change. The size of the buttons on the search result pages has always bothered me. So I have changed them into links.

This takes up less space and at least to me looks better.

New Feature

So I have been using for some months a hidden feature. The nature of this feature gives a clear advantage to you as a bidder. And therefore puts me at a disadvantage as a fellow lender. Because of that I have not shared this technology with anyone. I will utilize the same donation concept. For those that already have the Watch List enabled, $5 will be appreciated. For new donaters, $15 would unlock both the watch list and the new feature. What is the feature you ask? Hmmm... should I say... okay I will ...it is an autobid feature that waits until the last minute to bid.

If you are interested send me a message through prosper for more details.

Version 1.0.2.1: Notes change and fix to forum link to lender stats

I found a problem with the recent addition to the link to lender stat information in the forums. If the forum username was not a valid lender username then an error message would be displayed. I have removed the error message. The popup will display "No information found."

Second change I made was to allow a single click in the Notes popup to view the notes for that listing id without navigating the browser. Use double click to navigate to the listing id.

Any thoughts on improving the Notes feature would be appreciated.

Version 1.0.2.0: View other lender stats in Endorsement section and forum posts

Okay - two basic changes in this release. This forum post generated a lot of activity. This is the modification to the prosper.forums signature to include the stats for the lender. A big thanks to wiseclerk and epetroel for their work.

In partnership with epetroel and www.ericscc.com I have added some hot links next to lender names so you can quickly view the 'credibility' of the lender.

From within Prosper.com, in the Endorsement section I added a hot link next to the endorser's username.

And in prosper.forums.com if you find a poster that has not modified their signature I've added a link (View Lender Stats) under the poster's username that will retrieve the information for you.

Version 1.0.1.9: Option to disable timeout warning

I received some feedback that the popup warning for the timeout is sometimes annoying. I have added an option on the timeout dialog to prevent it from appearing. This ensures that the functionality remains the same for those that like it. If you change your mind, you can always re-enable the option on the Your Account tab.



I also fixed a problem with your current bids not showing immediately after you placed the bid in the search result pages and the watch list. I actually haven't tested it... since I haven't found a listing to bid on since I noticed it wasn't working. But it should work.

Version 1.0.1.8: Fixed View Loans to show all your loans

I read this post in the forums and thought that was a good idea.

Can Prosper do something so that we can set the default date range for "View Loans" under the "Your Account" tab?

Right now when I click on "View Loans" I only see my recently created loans and need to change the date range to see earlier loans. It's only one extra step I have to take but it would be convenient if could set my own default date range.

From the "Your Account" tab, when you click on "View Loans" it will default the Origination dates to Jan 1, 2005. This will ensure that all your loans will display.

If you already have the extension installed, click the update link on the right.
