SternFanNetwork

Here are some of the new features that made me want to switch to this code.

----------------

NOTIFICATIONS - this is like the popup that facebook has under the little earth icon that lets youknow what's happening. it lets you know that some replied to your post or liked it, that someone posted on your profile wall, that someone quoted your post. it's really nice. you can "watch" a thread even if you didn't start it. then when someone replies to it, you will be notified. you can even "follow" a member which makes them one of your profile friends & I adds them to your alerts. that are lots of settings that let you limit what you are alerted to & how.

WATCHED THREADS - I mentioned them above. in your control panel there's a link to bring up your watched threads. it's like bookmarking all your favs & finding them again easily.

CONVERSATIONS - PMs are now called conversations because like...

I haven't done anything cosmetic to the site yet. I'm still working on the the internals. Once everything is functioning, then I'll work on making it look like home & get all the new logos up in rotation.


so, to recap
LOGO - no I haven't put them up yet & no this isn't the new logo
LOOK OF SITE / COLORS - no I haven't edited the look of the site, the layout, or the colors yet.

...

I'm uploading the first batch now. I'll continue uploading them as I find time. Please check them out & leave comments. Once I geet it narrowed down to the potential replacements, I'll stick them up in rotation in the top logo spot.



I've been using the SternFanNetwork logo at the top left of this page for a while now & it's really grown on me but when Howard Stern gives you advice, you take it. He says, change that logo... it looks like Jackie Martling made it. Truth be told, it doesn't really fit the new site layout the way I want it to anyway so w/ a complete overhaul going on lets change that logo too.

I'm looking for help from the members. Please email me submissions for what you think the logo should look like or better yet, post them in this thread.

The logo will appear in the upper left hand cornerwhere my blowie logo is. The top submissions will run there in rotation w/ credit to the artist until one is settled on. What's in...

You've heard it on the Stern Show but here's the full music video for Benjy Bronk & Elisa Jordana's single Online Sweetheart. I love Benjy & his song is stuck in my head.



Grab it on iTunes for 99 cents & stay in the vortex all the time. I've made mine my ringtone.

You can talk to Elisa & Benjy about their romance on Twitter @BRONK & @ElisaJordana

SiriusXM 2.0 is Here!!
well, it is for some people.


Update your SiriusXM iPhone / iPad app now to get the new 2.0 features. Most notably is the new 5 hour buffer that lets you timeshift. What that means is you can rewind as much as 5 hrs & start playing what aired earlier to catch something you missed & then skip thru the crap you don't like. That means if you wake up at 7a & miss the beginning of Howard, you can just back up & start the show where it started at 6a. So much more but go check it out now!!
This isn't like the stiletto where you would record the channel & then replay it when you want to hear it or like your TV DVR where you program what shows you want it to record. It's every channel all the time. Just flip to any channel & rewind to what happened up to 5 hrs ago & then skip thru the content as you see fit. Think of the possibilities!! Never again will you be annoy cause you flip on Howard & it's the same part of the...

SFN Sponsor TSS-Radio.com is running their 3rd annual garage sale where they clear out overstock, old, open box, and refurbished items. Poke your head around & maybe you'll find a gem that you need. Keep in mind that Sirius is running a deal for $30 back rebate with free "Best of" & internet stream trials with new subs. That might be better than you get from that class action lawsuit. Taylor has all the rebate details.

When TSS Taylor was in town last month to do the Super Fan Roundtable, I told him I was in the market for a new speaker solution. I was thinking travel take w/ me in my bag but when he...
