Pownce Community Wiki / Pownce Tips

Here are a heap of general tips to make your every day use of Pownce useful and fun!

Tip 1: Check out your friends of friends.

Go to the Add Friends page and see who your friends of friends are. Most likely they're your friends too.

Tip 2: Turn on email notifications for Files and Events.

It's nice to know when someone is sending you a File or inviting you to an Event. You can change your email notification settings here.

Tip 3: Forward a note.

Did someone send you something cool on Pownce and you'd like to pass it along? Just click "forward" and send it to "my friends who haven't seen this yet".

Tip 4: Add upcoming events into your calendar.

Next to every event on your page is a link to download a ICS file. This makes it super easy to add any upcoming event into your own calendar app so you won't miss it.

Tip 5: Get specific with your sets.

It really helps to have a decent amount of sets if you have a large number of friends. This makes it easy to send the relevant stuff to the right people who are interested, and so the rest don't feel like they are getting spammed every hour.

Tip 6: On the run.

Did you know that Pownce has a mobile page as well? Find it at m.pownce.com, and sign in! Upcoming events are also viewable on their own page at m.pownce.com/events.

Tip 7: For all the world to see.

You can see heaps of public notes other awesome Pownce users have sent at pownce.com/public_notes. It's a great place to see what others are up to, find neat stuff, chat about things and to make new friends.
