Back to the Country (Music) http://wortfm.org/?page_id=227 With themes such as politics, work, home or around the music of a particular person, host Bill Malone puts emphasis on “classic” and “alternative” country music – what you can’t hear on Top 40 radio. Wed Jun 13th 2012 9.00am–12.00pm R=listener request. N=music new at the station. L=local music. Your purchases using the Buy it! links help support the station. Time zone: central Playlist chat This playlist’s chat is closed 10:15am Jody Hi jane great show this is the kind of thing we should use during pledge! 10:17am Jody Are you seeing this? You know if you ever want to go to your class, I would come in for the last hour of half or whatever. 10:19am Bill Malone (host) hey! I'd wandered away for a minute 10:19am Bill Malone (host) great idea about pledge drives 10:20am Jody We're wondering if this is as cludgey as spinitron editing? 10:21am Jody From this end it is pretty typical and easy. 10:22am Jody Tell Bill I have a long CD called "Dirty Laundry" the soul of Black Country 10:23am Jody 24 Songs, mostly not people I recognize 10:24am Bill Malone (host) thanks for the offer to sit in the last hour-- 10:25am Bill Malone (host) it's not super easy from this side, because of the settings (keep reverting) and it's hard to do this on top of everything 10:28am Jody We did talk about the settings and the ability to customize it by host, probably a while away 10:33am Jody I think if we're going to try to do all this stuff it has to be super easy. Last week Tues, Dave and I had not been able get together and I tried to pledge rap, engineer and do spinitron on the fly! NO WAY! 10:33am Bill Malone (host) that might help. don't like that you seem to have to use the mouse to send 10:34am Jody Can't just hit return? Same on this end, good catch much like spinitron 10:35am Jody I'm going to take a screen shot of this just to show people. Thanks for trying it 10:40am Bill Malone (host) I have to keep refreshing the public page to get the new chat lines 10:43am Jonathan Hi. Nice show today. Nice to read the chat between you and Jody so I know what to expect with this new feature :-) 10:45am Bill Malone (host) it could be useful.... if there's time in the studio 10:47am Bill Malone (host) when I look at the public side, the new messages are at the bottom- is that weird? 10:50am Jody opposite here new on top 10:54am Jonathan When I was on the public side, new was on the bottom. Now that I'm logged in, new is at the top. Yes, a little weird. 10:55am Bill Malone (host) can you see a setting to change it? 10:57am Jonathan Nope 10:57am Bill Malone (host) I guess it follows the playlist-- you scroll down to see the current song 10:58am Jonathan I don't see a way to log out , either, so I don't know if there's a way to change the setting on the public side or not. I'm guessing not. 10:59am Jonathan But it runs opposite the play list when you're logged in. Helpful? Not necessarily 10:59am Jody last song is charlie poole, they quit updating i wonder why? 11:01am Jody Jon, what is the bottom song you see? 11:02am Jonathan Poor orphan child. Looks like the play list stopped updating 11:03am Bill Malone (host) I have to have it open to editing to keep the chat open. I wonder if the timestamp is messing with it 11:03am Jonathan And since the chat runs in the opposite direction from the playlist, I hadn't noticed that. Not a big deal but again, not helpful. 11:03am Jody So I hit refresh and get the log in box again but the chat box is still open 11:04am Jody I have orphan child w the refresh 11:05am Bill Malone (host) I'm having a hard time testing right now-- 11:05am Bill Malone (host) took at the timestamps for the chat! EST 11:05am Jody Jane, did you mean you have to have the play list open? 11:06am Jonathan I hit reload (in Firefox) and nothing changed. Hit it again and it kicked me out of chat and said "The chat for this playlist is closed." So I clicked on Current playlist under the Spinitron calendar and it put me back into the chat. 11:06am Jody We should quit bothering you. Thanks for your effort I pointed the EDT to Tom when I logged on 11:07am Bill Malone (host) it's because I refreshed or something and it closed the list, then reverted to the wrong setting 11:07am Jonathan And now my last message got a "Sent. Waiting for moderation" message and a delay before it posted. Somebody is moderating this? 11:07am Bill Malone (host) I have to have the play list open near as I can tell, but I'll try playing another time 11:08am Bill Malone (host) I changed that setting, too-- to have approval 11:08am Jonathan And yes, I'm going to stop bothering you, too (and get back to work). Interesting feature but things seem a little buggy this morning. 11:08am Jody Thanks. I think the "host" is default moderator Bye 11:09am Bill Malone (host) bye!
