New site features, and how YOU can contribute!
« on: May 25, 2004, 11:12:52 am »
Hello folks,

In order for you to fully take advantage of some of the new features of the site, I\'d like to take the time to introduce you to a couple of them, and show you how you can contribute.

Reviews: From the drop-down box on the home page, click on \'Reviews\'. This will bring you to our new Review Archive - set up for reviews of live Breakfast shows and Albums. Not only are we going back to the days of the [pbfans] yahoogroup to backfill old reviews, but you can also submit new reviews to the archive yourself! Once you\'re in the Reviews area, click on \'Write A Review\'. Fill in all the fields, give it a 1-10 rating, and submit! That\'s all there is to it! Once your review is approved, other members can add comments and their own ratings to your review! Check it out!

Web Links: From the drop-down box on the home page, click on \'Web Links\'. This will bring you to our links section (a work in progress, as there\'s not much there yet). Got a link you think we should know about? Want to post a link to your trade list? This is the place to do it!

That\'s about it for now. Looking forward to watching the site grow, with your help! Go easy...

thanks to leith for already getting 2 reviews in!

note on the reviews section: i need to alter the code so that instead of searching alphabetically (a, b, c, etc), it searches by year, album, etc.. not sure when this will be done, but just wanted to let you all know it\'s coming..

I don\'t know about anyone else but I always enjoy more than one perspective on the Breakfast experience. If you see a review for a show you were at already reviewed go ahead and post your review also. I think it would be neat to see how we see/hear the same shows.

^^ exactly. even if you don\'t want to write a full review, you can add your comments to someone else\'s review, and give your own rating in the Reviews section.

i\'ll be posting a notice about how reviews should be handled at some point today.

I believe it will be searchable

Noticed the members visited today box. I like the fact that we can now see the traffic each day.  Hope to see it rise daily.
