… at least, in terms of the number tunes available in the tune search.
Aside from the attention grabbing headline, it’s customary at this time of the year to take a look back at what developments have happened over the year, so I thought I might as well join in. Here are a few of the 2010 highlights for abcnotation.com:
I’ve just released a new edition of the tune search and I’m pleased to announce that it’s massively increased in size now with over 275,000 tunes indexed and available for searching!
Those of you who follow this blog or keep up to date via facebook may have noticed a resounding silence from these parts over the past couple of months.
The abc website has carried Google “adsense” adverts for a while now – they help to pay for the web hosting, amongst other things. However, they are not always very relevant to the site.
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!

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.
