Hi Joe. I'll confirm that it's still slow and basically a pain to use.

We do have requirements to overhaul this functionality as part of a larger registration revamp, but that work is still quite a ways out in terms of priorities and bandwidth.

For now, you can get a limited "auto complete" type of functionality by typing interests directly in the box. Though not perfect, the resulting list can allow you to choose from a short list of items already entered by other WJ members.

Thanks much for your feedback.

As of today, it's still slow. It's also unreadable. The various options display in 3 columns in a non-resizable window, lopping off the ends of each entry to make it fit the column (rather than wrapping down to the next line). I understand that it's a long list, but it would work better as a single-column scrolling window, or as a separate page with alphabetical divisions.

The "Select Interests" drop down menu is so slow as to be unsable.
