this new stuff on the first post of each topic

[itsG]

so i might sound a litte dumb but whats up with the new stuff ??
^^facebook like? then sign in? ^^tweet?


will it like each and every thread seperately? will it just like BTF on facebook itself?
i guess tweet sort of speaks for itself?


the bottom ones whats up with these? what do they do?

We are testing some new features for the site. The like button at the top is just that, a like button

The bottom ones are to share on the other sites....pretty straightforward. We're tweaking it still which is why we haven't posted about the new features yet. We also just upgraded forum software so stay tuned for a full post

Yup, as Swi said. Stay tuned for more information and a post about it. For now it's pretty straightforward if you're used to facebook: there's a like button at the top of the post, and you can see if other friends of yours on fb have liked it.

At the bottom, there are buttons for sharing on certain social media sites that some BTFers use: stumbleupon, twitter, delicious, and facebook (share, as opposed to like). I also made the facebook icon larger (at least for now) because it would be the most commonly used.

I encourage you to use them, click what you 'like' and share links with friends!

^ Since we're talking about changes...What's the difference between the "Bhangra Mixes and Music" & the "Music & Albums" discussion boards? Is one just solely dedicated to Bhangra?

I think I will rename the Music and Albums one to something more along "bhangra artists and albums"... It's not supposed to be a place where people post any copyrighted material!

messaged u about this before i saw this thread. starting each topic w bhangra is redundant and makes it harder to differentiate, albeit for two seconds

Messaged you back. It's better for search engines to have the word bhangra in there. I may be able to remove it from the ordinary name though.
