The new version of the abc website – abcnotation.com – launched on 21st June 2009, is one year old today. In another exciting development for abc, Gregory Dyke and Paul Rosen have just released their javascript abc renderer, abcjs. I’ve just released the May edition of the tune search – now with 61,000 tunes, including several thousand newly added song melodies from the Digital Tradition archive. Enjoy! Chris I’ve been busy out the back again, working on another little feature for the site – a recommender system. Another brief update – some time ago someone suggested that the forums had an RSS / Atom feed so that users can keep up to date with new posts without having actually having to visit the forums. I’ve mostly used this blog for posting updates about the abcnotation.com website. However, I just wanted to let people know about tunepal.org, a remarkable new abc development from Bryan Duggan. Minor improvement to the site … Thanks to Sue Blake who pointed out that the software page didn’t show programs that work on Linux / Unix machines and gave me a list of those that do. I’ve just amended – slightly – the code that creates the top tune charts so that it now excludes recent winners for a week. I’ve been amusing myself over the Christmas period by writing a bit of code that works out the top ten tune pages visited and searches made recently. Well, it’s been some time since I last blogged – nearly three months. Eek! |
