frequently asked questions (faq)



Who can see the questions, reviews, and comments I write?

The questions, reviews, and comments you write can be seen by any other Mobspin user and the general public as well.

However, only people who are "connected" to you can see your name or picture attached to what you've written (or see your profile).

"Connected" users are your friends (one degree away), your friends' friends (two degrees), and the friends of your friends' friends (three degrees).

Your content will appear anonymous to everyone else.



Who can answer my Mobspin questions, or comment on my reviews?

Only people connected to you — within three degrees of friendship — can reply to your questions or comment on your reviews. Our hope is that this approach will help prevent unwanted/obnoxious comments.



Whose questions/reviews/comments do I see?

It's up to you. On the home, questions, and reviews pages you'll see a control that lets you choose whose content you'd like to see. The options:

you    Volume_on_white Volume_off_white Volume_off_white Volume_off_white Volume_off_white
your friends    Volume_on_white Volume_on_white Volume_off_white Volume_off_white Volume_off_white
your friends & their friends    Volume_on_white Volume_on_white Volume_on_white Volume_off_white Volume_off_white
your friends, their friends & their friends    Volume_on_white Volume_on_white Volume_on_white Volume_on_white Volume_off_white
everyone    Volume_on_white Volume_on_white Volume_on_white Volume_on_white Volume_on_white

You can also change this setting by editing your profile.

This setting also determines whose content you'll see in your email digest.

Search shows results from everyone.

Note: content on your home page and in your email digest is also filtered according to your interests, which can be set from your profile.
