This is really great, Tom. I’ve been thinking about some things as it relates to KXCI. I’m just letting it all percolate for now.
I’m trying to think about how to message to the programmers about the new setup. And then how to convey to listeners how to get to shows. I suppose I could break down and make some short videos, but I tend to write up a bunch of words for users. And I like to get it distilled to about 60s words for the end users, the listeners.
I love that you could click on the schedule and then go to that playlist and listen to that episode.
I also like that you can go to any playlist from the day and scroll down to get to previously played shows for the day. But, how do you teach people to do all that scrolling?
I love that this is Spinitron based and that you already have the schedule, and that your system easily allows for occasional prorgrams.
On the top of our Programs Page, we had one link to the rfa page, and one link to the KXCI Spinitron Schedule. On our website, we used to have several locations linked to the general rfa/kxci landing page so that people could go to our rfa page and see the whole archive.
And then below that, there are tiles for each of the programs, and the tiles to a unique program page.
On nearly every music program page, we have a link to the Spinitron Playlist for that program, which in some cases could go back to 2013. And we used to have a link to every program in rfa, too. So that was about about 70 unique rfa links.
OK that’s mostly a description of how things have been working, not a lot of questions. Just trying to imagine how to make things the easiest.
Again, thank you so much!
The first show that we have archived is The Hub, which began at 6pm, Monday, August 24th. Hurray! Looks and sounds good.
