Those of you who use Reciva based Internet radios will note a change in the
Reciva.com web site that occurred a few weeks ago.  The new site has a much
slicker interface and is generally more useful.   Among the changes are two
things I have noted:

 

.        The site now allows you to nest your favorite "Stations" and "Streams"
listing in multi-level directories assuming your radio's firmware allows this,
too.   This permits you to create your own groupings and not have just one long
and almost unmanageable list.   So all my Brazilian Samba stations now are
together.   The one drawback I have seen in the interface is that you must
create the directory, stream, and add the URL in multiple steps.  This is
unnecessarily laborious.   The click and drag interface gets major points
though.  



.        The redesign broke all the search engine links to everything in their
discussion areas.  So, if you find a Google or Bing link to a particular topic
on Reciva.com, odds are it doesn't work.  Since they provided no automatic
redirection (poor QA on that) it will take awhile for the search engines to
catch up and re-index all the pages again.  I've also noted that Google still
has links to stations that have been deleted from the Reciva database.
