501st Post

Its merely a nice round number, but Earlier today we had our 500th post. I want to thank everyone who gave advice, helped with the site, and submitted news and tips.

1984-sea-city-of-the-future

Heading into the second half of the year, you can look forward to a new site layout, and I’m posting asking for what type of stuff you wish TCTD did better.

I’m planning:

  • More visibility for our featured content, like interviews, exclusive podcasts and audio, and previews.
  • More user generated content. Make it easier to post your news and get the word out about your music, events, devices.
  • More audio/visual treats

Finally I want to thank everyone who reads the site, whether its every day, or just once in a while. Post feedback and comments, and thanks for reading TCTD!

    You’ve got me hooked. How about a mobile friendly version for those of us on the go? :)

  3. Congrats! I love TCTD!

  4. Wow! Already 500 posts! Congratz!

    @Peter — My current phone only lets me use the crappy browser that my provider installed (no sd card or downloadables)… I think it’s “Openwave”. If I could use Opera mini everything would be fine *sigh*

    I luv TCTD

  11. egr_ which mobile browser you use? Before my current, id rock tctd on the mobile version of google reader.

  12. Congrats.

    asking for what type of stuff you did better? That’s a first. Ok, here I go:
    * I do not like voices (unless it’s singing) commenting on the podcast. I wish there was text review of the voice part.
    * I wish to have direct lazy links to the original tunes from the podcasts!
    * less live stuff, after all I can’t go to them…
    * we could use ‘tags’ (demoscene, hardware, tracking, releases, etc) easier to find specific subjects when looking back (but of course there’s a search button)/easier way to check back previous posts.
    * am I picky yet?
    * more themes!

    1- We do this already its called categories. You’ll see it under POSTED IN in the footer of each article

    2- We rather have you explore the archives and pages they come from!

    3- I really dont try to post live stuff before hand, unless someone thinks it will help. I prefer to post videos and audios after the fact!

    4) im gonna stick with the one theme, but Im working on a nice random treat that will be updated from time to time :D

    egr- ok ill look into it! Maybe you can try bookmarking the rss feed page as a workaround until then?

  14. if VORC came back now would we care?

    1. Well there are certain things I think VORC did better than us? Especially jap. And euro scene coverage!

  15. Awesome :D

  16. Jellica for euro correpsondant?

    Peter Swimm for the win?

    Lazerbeat for president?
