View Full Version : Weirdness in the library.

I've noticed some weirdness in the library and was wondering if there have been some changes... For example. Plug in the word "journey" and you'll get the band Journey and the Iona album "Journey Into the Morn" amongst many other things. But recently I've noticed that instead of being alphabetical by band and then by title, you'll get a few Journey songs, then a few Iona songs, then something else, then more Iona, then more Journey. I've also noticed that the entries that have the word "journey" in both the album title and song title, for example, Wakey's "Journey/Recollection" from Journey to the Center... appear first, then the entries that have just one occurance of "journey" in it come next.

It's not a complaint as much as wondering what changed. It threw me off once before because I was looking for a certain song and thought it was no longer in the library before I realized the search parameters had been changed...



Being observant and ridiculous..., Yesspaz

The search engine has changed.

Make sure you choose what you want to search if you can - album, artist, or song title.

For entries that have multiple versions of the word you're search ing for will come up first, anticipating that those entires are the most relevant.

Say on Spaz. The fact that we can narrow down by artist, or album, or whatnot REALLY speeds up searches. Good Job Unt!

My favorite part of that is to search by year!

Well, you know how WWII really made us tighten our belts. The progressive rock scene really suffered during those years...

Blasted Nazis, Italian Fascists, and Imperial Japanese...

Of course you're always welcome do donate whatever progressive rock you find from 1941...

There are people pushing their luck who should be pushing up daisies.

Don't think this fits with Chris Staples' theme of under-achievers or people who have been put down by society, but I like it!

Just to get back on topic... I'd like to request a very slight change to the search. Could y'all move the 'GO' button to the right side of all the search options? I always forget that I have to mouse left after selecting from the pull-down. Or it could just be senescence setting in...
