Title: Post 2000 playlists
Post by: twcclassics on January 17, 2011, 10:29:22 AM
Since Martin and friends have done such a splendid job of cataloging the playlists from 2000-2010, I will be removing mine (again) on February 1st. Seems kind of silly to have the exact same data on both sites. Not to mention that maintaining them is a real PIA.

Ehh, even though Alex did a wonderful job maintaining the playlist page, there is no search feature and navigating through the templates on TWCT just to find one song is a PIA. Your TWCC page had a search feature to look through the songs and playlists, it had CD information which made the page look more complete and in depth, and you attached a PDF file of the playlist, which confirmed any playlist errors. If you really are going to take it down, how about we integrate those features into the TWCT playlist files? I don't have the time anymore to update the playlist page but I'm sure Martin or Alex could add a search feature, the CD titles and your attachments of the playlist screenshots onto that page, that way it's the most complete and up-to-date.

That is something i am working on. If Matt is willing to contribute any information that we can integrate we would be more than happy to add it

You all are welcome to use my 2000-2005 playlists in any way you see fit. The html, pdf sources, and mp3s (including the ones at http://www.twcclassics.com/temp/ (http://www.twcclassics.com/temp/))...they're all yours. :)

Same here. At least as far retrieving data and files from my site goes.
