WEFUNK listeners! Please follow @wefunkradio if you aren't already. This @wefunk_dev account is oooooold and we're shutting it down soon

[WEFUNK Radio Web Dev @wefunk_dev]

WEFUNK is touring Europe again in October/November... http://ping.fm/SL1pr

[WEFUNK Radio Web Dev @wefunk_dev]

We want to step up our UI design. A few cool upcoming website features are waiting for proper icons/UI. Got skills? Email if you can help!

[WEFUNK Radio Web Dev @wefunk_dev]

Bugfix! Favorite songs were ignored on show pages (no star icon). Not sure how long that was broken. Don't be shy about emailing me 4 bugs!

[WEFUNK Radio Web Dev @wefunk_dev]

Welcome to our new followers on Twitter! Prof Groove makes notes here about wefunkradio.com development. Suggestions+collab always welcome!

[WEFUNK Radio Web Dev @wefunk_dev]

Big shoutout to righton.fm, who started syndicating WEFUNK shows a week ago. Spread that funk!

[WEFUNK Radio Web Dev @wefunk_dev]

What's next with /radio/? Probably integrating favorites... then artist photos (Track change timing could be better, but not a big deal IMO)

[WEFUNK Radio Web Dev @wefunk_dev]

Other than layout tweaks, main change in /radio/ is limiting playlist to "current" tracks. More like the widget now. Makes sense, & simpler.

[WEFUNK Radio Web Dev @wefunk_dev]

First "visible" change since the move: /radio/ has finally been revamped. This was on my UGLY list for ages. Not perfect yet... but better!

[WEFUNK Radio Web Dev @wefunk_dev]

One behind-the-scenes benefit of the #WEFUNK migration: soon we'll use #git for proper version control. Better than editing live files, no?

[WEFUNK Radio Web Dev @wefunk_dev]

Many thanks to Lawrence aka Leprechaun for providing the new server for wefunkradio.com

[WEFUNK Radio Web Dev @wefunk_dev]

If you noticed the #WEFUNK website suddenly get faster about a week ago... we migrated to a better server. Much smoother move than I feared!

[WEFUNK Radio Web Dev @wefunk_dev]

Started working on #WEFUNK playlist plugins, for biographies, YouTube, etc. Screenshots: http://bit.ly/4via2D

[WEFUNK Radio Web Dev @wefunk_dev]

As always—please reach out if you have ideas about how to make the WEFUNK site more powerful, useable, pretty, sophisticated, simple, etc….

[WEFUNK Radio Web Dev @wefunk_dev]

Now that we have artist photos while shows play, I'm working (slowly) on a plugin system to incorporate biographies/youtube/etc. more easily

[WEFUNK Radio Web Dev @wefunk_dev]

Overhauled our contact page. Much more useful now... and it doesn't abuse the eyeballs any more either.

[WEFUNK Radio Web Dev @wefunk_dev]

Tweaked fonts on a few pages. I like Segoe UI & it gives a nice accent on the show archive pages.

[WEFUNK Radio Web Dev @wefunk_dev]

When a song is playing what info should be available? We have artist pix now. Biography is coming too. What else? What do you want to see?

[WEFUNK Radio Web Dev @wefunk_dev]

We're back in action with two new shows online: http://bit.ly/iWqdG /

[WEFUNK Radio Web Dev @wefunk_dev]

Dealing with various computer failure on the personal front. Nothing major lost, but it's gonna take longer to post the next #WEFUNK show.
