Behind you. Don't look now, cause I'm about 1359 km behind you, but I *am* behind you.

Not much to say, just this:
The little icon next to each name that shows a bubble with the user's info - it's killing statuses. It's the space between the name and the text that makes it feel more like a chat than a status.

I think we all agreed that the status area should be turned into a shoutbox, but under it I hope to keep statuses, and that just isn't going to work well if the icon stays where it is.


I see 2 solutions:
1. Remove the icon. Either make clicking the name show that bubble, or just link to the profile and remove the bubble altogether.
2. Move the icon to the other side. It'd just not make sense then, though.
Please go here!



I need more stuff to put here. Any ideas?

I think I understand what you mean. Is it that bad having that icon over there?

No, but it breaks the whole status feel, and turned it into a chat rather than a status box.

You'd think so, but it's actually what breaks statuses and makes it a chat instead.

I personally really enjoy those. It's like a mini profile.

Yes, I know, but the point is not their usage but their location. I'd much rather if clicking the username brought up the info bubble and the icon removed.

Bingo. I like the bubble too, although kinda useless, so I moved it to the other side.
